Knack 2 Development Possibly Leaked – Rumor

Knack 2 development has been possibly leaked out via a LinkedIn resume (The listing is now removed) from Mindy Liang who’s a 3D Animator at XPEC Entertainment which is also an outsourced company that’s handling some aspects of the Final Fantasy XV development. The listing stated that she was working on Knack since May 2015 which means she has been working on it for almost a year and was animating 3D characters and cut-scenes for PlayStation 4 – Source.

Knack wasn’t very well received when the game launched alongside the PS4. However, I personally thought it was a decent platforming launch title that harkened back to the good old-school platforming gameplay design. The game never tried to do anything new and it was obvious enough that it was just trying to be a simple 3d platformer. Maybe that’s why the audience felt that game seemed dated in terms of mechanics, but for me, it was an enjoyable nostalgic trip.

Hello everyone, my name is Leo and I am the proud founder of Gaming Instincts. I've been working in the Gaming Industry for over 6 years professionally. However, in my recent times I have decided to go create a new path for myself and that path began with Gaming Instincts. I loves many different types of games genres including FPS, RTS, TPS, MMOs, Arcade Racers and many more. One of my favorite current developers is From Software the creators of the Soulsbourne games. My friends also thing I am crazy because I love trophy and achievement hunting on my PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. I always strive to obtain 100% completion including DLC on some of the hardest games that are out in the market. Most notable and proud 100%s are Evolve, Overwatch, Battleborn and both of the Evil Within titles. Over the course of my 6 year career I had the pleasure to speak to some of the biggest publishers and developers in the world including 343 Industries, Turn 10, Rare, Lionhead Studios, Naughty Dog, Ready at Dawn, Bungie, Activision, EA, Epic and many more. What does the future hold for me at Gaming Instincts and where shall we go? Only time will tell.
