Sony shows off new game Boundless for 2016

Sony showed off a new game called Boundless at its Paris Game Week media briefing today. It shows that Sony continues to invest in new intellectual property for the PlayStation 4, which has become the lead video game console in the world.

The company didn’t say much about the trailer, which depicted a cartoon world and a character that was carrying a big hammer. The art style looked quite interesting, with a mix of realistic 3D and amusing cartoon characters.

The Japanese tech giant said that the game would debut in 2016. We’ll be curious to find out more about it. It’s not clear who is making it yet.
