Summary

Sakurai filmed Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games years in advance of its release.
Sakurai has been working on a new project since April 2022.
It's unknown if the new game is Super Smash Bros. or something else.

The finale episode of Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games had a plot twist of sorts, as Sakurai revealed that the episodes had been filmed well in advance of their eventual release, apart from the final episode. The episodes were filmed two and a half years ago during a rare break for Sakurai after he finished his commitments on 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In July 2021, Sakurai was asked to write up a game proposal, and he did so at "lightning speed." He went on to say, "I'm sorry I can't share more about this project, bu༒t assuming we're able to get it made, it should be ann🐼ounced sooner or later."

Sakurai Has Been Working On A New Game For Years

"I'd been given the OK to move forward with production, but it was going to take some time to assemble the right team. The target timeframe was April 2022. Until then, I would have to wait," Sakurai adds. If all went according to plan with production, then Sakurai and Nintendoꦏ have been working on this new game for over two years.

Sakurai finished up with Ultimate in October 2021 but had to wait until April 2022 to begin production on his next game. 🌞During this gap, Sakurai filmed Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games. As of💎 now, he has no plans to continue releasing content on YouTube, as he's pooled all of his knowledge of game development into the existing episodes.

"I'm sure I could think of plenty more to discuss, but at present, I have no plans to continue. So please don't ask for more episodes on this topic or that to꧂pic. I've already given this my best," he says.

As for Sakurai's new project, we'll just have to wait and see. The legendary creator has been working almost exclusively on Super Smash Bros. for the past decade and a half, and last year he felt that nobody else would be able to "168澳洲幸运5开奖网:take the reins" on the series.
