No more Resistance games from Insomniac

Insomniac CEO Ted Price has confirmed that the developer is finished with the Resistance series.

Resistance: Fall of Man was one of the first games available on PlayStation 3 back in 2006, and was followed by 2008’s Resistance 2, with the trilogy rounded off last year with Resistance 3.

The franchise also made the jump to handheld consoles, with Sony’s Resistance: Retribution arriving on PSP in 2009, and Resistance: Burning Skies due on PlayStation Vita later this year.

Insomniac is now branching into multiplatform territory, and is currently working on shoot-‘em-up Overstrike.

“Certainly over the next couple years, we’re going to see a huge evolution in visuals in social games,” explained Price. “It’s thanks to improving technologies. It’s thanks to browsers that are getting better and more powerful. It’s thanks to development teams – core traditional game teams who are moving into the space.”
