Zipper Interactive Were Developing Two PS4 Shooters Before Closure

SOCOM developer Zipper Interactive was developing a first person shooter for PlayStation 4 before Sony closed the studio last year is has emerged. 

Videogamer reports that the CVs of former designers at the studio show that work was underway on both a shooter in the SOCOM franchise as well as another FPS title centered around a new IP. All development on both titles ceased with "the dissolution of the studio."

Zipper's final game was the PlayStation Vita title Unit 13 which was released just three weeks prior to the closure of the studio. The developer was most well known for the SOCOM games but also developed the online FPS MAG. 

All first party Sony studios are known to be working on PS4 games with Guerrilla's Killzone: Shadow Fall being one of the FPS titles headed to the console. Yesterday, the system's lead architect Mark Cerny commented that the PS4 will have the strongest launch line-up of "any prior PlayStation."
