Lost Soul Aside Is a FFXV-Inspired Game Made by One Man
Lost Soul Aside is a Final Fantasy XV-inspired game with the combat of Devil May Cry. And in a crazy twist, it’s all being made by just one person.
The game is being created by one man by the name of Yang Bing. The trailer is below if you want to see what all the fuss is about.
Over on the Lost Soul Aside’s Facebook page, Bing’s manager answered some questions surrounding the project. Currently, it’s in development for PC and is being created in the Unreal Engine 4. That said, Bing is open to the idea of bringing it to other platforms should the need arise.
Bing’s manager says the developer was inspired by Final Fantasy XV when he saw the trailer two years ago, so Bing “decided to work on his own (Final) Fantasy, but the models will eventually change in the final game.”
