After seven years in development The Last Guardian is finally set to arrive on PS4 in 2016. Showcased via an amazing gameplay trailer, Team ICO’s adventure wowed the audience at Sony’s E3 2015 press conference last night, and when the dust settled SCEA’s Scott Rohde spoke about why we’ve had to wait this long for one of gaming’s most anticipated titles.

“Sometimes it takes a long time to realize a vision,” said Rohde in an interview on the Live at E3 YouTube channel. “Sometimes it’s important to recognise at PlayStation it’s really important to us. You know we’re not just going to kick out a game because it’s been promised or whatever. The vision has to stay true, and I think this is the best evidence of that.”

Rohde is of course referring to the gameplay section that was shown at the conference last night. Following the reveal we also got sent these gorgeous screenshots. You can relive the moment The Last Guardian was announced below.
