How PSP vets aim to make The Order: 1886 into Sony's next great franchise (interview)

The Order: 1886 is going to be one of Sony’s major games at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) tradeshow in June. If all goes well, it could be one of the company’s next big series, akin to the huge franchises like Uncharted or The Last of Us.

Based on the preview I’ve seen, this one is living up that hype so far. It has stellar graphics, including realistic human faces and incredibly detailed imagery of London in 1886. It’s also got an interesting story and fleshed out characters.
