PlayStation has confirmed an exciting collaboration with Bad Robot, the production company founded by JJ Abrams, to develop a new four-player co-op game. This game is being created in conjunction with Mike Booth, notable for his work on Left 4 Dead. While details remain scarce, the partnership holds promise as both parties are eager to generate buzz around this innovative project.
After years contributing to Valve, Booth transitioned to Blizzard before joining Bad Robot.

In recent years, Booth has been designated as the Chief Creative Officer at Bad Robot’s gaming division, sharpening anticipation for their upcoming title.
Anna Sweet, CEO of Bad Robot Games, conveyed her enthusiasm for this project, stating:
“With the support of PlayStation, we hope to deliver a bold, innovative experience that is truly special for players.”
Translation: We aim to create a remarkable experience with PlayStation’s backing.
Overview of the Game:
- Exclusive to PS5 and PC
- Genre: Co-op shooter

Details from Sony remain cryptic, with more information anticipated in the future. As whispers of the PS6 loom, the exclusive commitment to the PS5 hints at a likely release in the coming years. While the game is still in its early stages, excitement builds toward what Bad Robot and Booth will unveil.
