Square Enix will have one of its busiest years in 2022 as they bring a series of proposals for all tastes and from all kinds of talented studios that have something to contribute to video games. This time we are going to talk to you about Babylon’s Falla game developed by platinumgames that surely catches your attention.
The first thing you should know is that this project is already several years old since its announcement was made public. We even thought that they had already forgotten or canned it, however, in the last 12 months – right at the time of writing this article -, both platinumgames What Square Enix revealed important data about this project.
Now, in order to better attend to your doubts about Babylon’s Fallwe put a series of questions to the minds behind this game: Junichi Eharaproducer at SquareEnix; Takahisa Sugiyamamanager at platinumgames; and Kenji Saitōalso director at platinumgames.
Babylon’s Fall is a game as a service, however can it be played alone?
Many gamers, especially “purists” hate service-focused multiplayers because – nothing else should be enjoyed online – however, at least in the precise case of Babylon’s Fall there is that opportunity to undertake the adventure alone.
“In general, we recommend playing co-op, but of course you can also play solo. Even if you decide to play solo, the title has a built-in scaling system, which ensures that the balance is right even if you are playing alone.”, declared Takahisa Sugiyama. On the other hand, it is worth emphasizing that it is necessary to be connected to the Internet, but everything has a reason for being.
On the other hand, it’s been a while since they announced Babylon’s Fall and one would think that, in such a long time, the project changed, but, it was not like that. In accordance with Junichi Ehara: “It’s a hack and slash game-as-a-service that hasn’t changed and was made by PlatinumGames to make the action shine.”
The concept is the same, but this game has changed during its development. With the adjustments, PlatinumGames wanted to deliver a title that could be played for a long time. “We have been able to build a foundation for a title that users around the world will be able to play for a long time. Although this has resulted in a long wait, I am proud to say that we are now ready to meet your expectations.” declared Sugiyama.

Lessons? Weapons? How hard does PlatinumGames’ new game get?
Usually, a game as a service focuses mainly on offering classes to the players, however, there are no such here. The joke is in the armor and weapons that you equip to have a certain role. From the following actions is that you must choose between a sword, hammer, bow, etc.
- Light Attack: Attacks that focus on speed.
- Heavy Attack: Attacks that focus on offensive strength.
- Gideon Arms: Special attacks that the player can perform independent of the character’s movement. These vary on the weapon equipped by the player.
- Ghost Attack: Powerful attacks that consume a lot of spirit.
On the other hand, in difficult topics, Sugiyama tells us that these levels cannot be changed by mission. The difficulty of each of these is according to the content. Fortunately, after the closed beta, they rebalanced the bosses of Babylon’s Fall.
What’s up with the loot? Is there for everyone?
Games as a service, in a way, are going to give you some kind of reward. Many times these loot items can be “unfair”. what happens in Babylon’s Fall? First of all, there are random items that appear when you defeat an enemy and also enchantments that are added to equipment. There are no gatcha mechanics to get items.
On the other hand, some elements of control, according to the words of the director Kenji Saitōare similar to NieR: Automata, however, the design and action are totally new. To this we must add that Babylon’s Fall has a collaboration with NieR: Automata during its first season.
On the other hand, we must point out that there will be crossplay in the full extent of the word between PS5, PS4 and PC players, so there are no excuses to find someone to play with. Now, if you get the PS4 version and in the future you have a PS5, you will have the upgrade for free.
What is the challenge behind the creation of Babylon’s Fall?
Games as a service are not made overnight, they require heavy planning, which means a challenge that is not only resolved during launch, but also later with content and so on. In case of Babylon’s Fall it is certainly a special one.
“The biggest challenge was building a technical foundation and game design capable of sustaining a large number of users over a long period of time,” Takahisa Sugiyama told TierraGamer. “And just building that is not the end; There is always some flaw found after a game is released. Even the various AAA titles currently in the works have overcome similar challenges to get to where they are today. I think the most important thing is to give our best and then keep taking on new challenges as they come.”
don’t forget that Babylon’s Fall will go on sale next March 3 at PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC.
