Although there have been multiple rumors in the past about Team ICO’s The Last Guardian being retooled for the PS4, but there’s a twist. Here’s where we get into true “grain of salt” territory. GamingBolt received a tip regarding Arata, a Twitter user who is a friend of Fumito Ueda. Ueda served as the designer and director for the game before eventually leaving Sony. He’s still a special consultant on the project though.

The tweet from Arata was in Japanese (pictured above) and translated as: “I can not wait for the Steller’s sea eagle Toriko show of flesh-eating at # E3. I hope you are all doing well.” That tweet has since been removed.

Edit 1:
There seems to be an update to the story OP.
Update: A user emailed us comparing the font of the deleted tweet [pictured below] and the ones that are actually on Arata’s Twitter feed. And although there is a difference, fonts do look a bit different across different browsers, monitor resolution and devices. For comparison’s sake we took a screenshot of Arata’s Twitter feed and pasted it on his live feed. They sure look similar to us. We are not defending this article. We are only merely stating that fonts look slight varied across different configurations. Again, this is a rumor and it needs to be taken with a grain of salt as usual.

Edit 2: It's most likely fake, guys. The party is over. v_v

Here we go again.

Edit: The tweet screams fake; its author used the personal pronoun "watashi" twice, while a native speaker would probably have used none.

Rockefellers. Skull and Bones. Microsoft. Al Qaeda. A Cabal of Bankers. The melting point of steel. What do these things have in common? Wake up sheeple, the landfill wasn't even REAL!
Every damn year

Let it go Gaf

For those who don't know, that's what it's called in Japanese: Trico, the man-eating eagle.

Appearing means nothing. Actually show the game or announce a release date or something. If it's the sound of wind blowing and a black screen saying LAST GUARDIAN COMING TO PS4 then it's nothing worth caring about.

I can't see why not, it's been two years since Team ICO was turned upside-down and usually western devs are faster than a Japanese one in dev hell.
