It’s been twenty years because the apes first escaped – and hypothesis is rife that one other game may be within the works.
A brand new Twitter account, piposaru20th (Pipo Saru is the collection’ Japanese identify) – which doesn’t have an official verification, however which is adopted by unique collection developer SIE Japan Studio (great place, Eurogamer) – has dropped a touch.
The under tweet has began up a complete heap of hypothesis.

The tweet interprets to: “Piposar (20 years since then. I’ve been running around, but i wonder if there’s anyone chasing me anymore…)”
What may this truly imply? It’s been some time since Sony final hinted at a brand new Ape Escape game, all the way in which again in 2016:

(PlayStation Japan has, by the way in which, additionally retweeted this current Ape Escape tweet).
The final Ape Escape game was Ape Escape Move for the PS3, which was not significantly well-liked. Hopefully, if a brand new game is within the works, it’ll be a return to the collection’ PS One glory days – and even, maybe, a remake, ala Medievil.
Of course, for now, all of that is hypothesis – if Sony truly needs to announce an Ape Escape game within the new future we’ll maintain you up to date on no matter they exhibit.
