Quantic Dream founder David Cage has confirmed that titles produced by the studio will remain exclusive to PlayStation, stating the relationship with Sony is "fantastic".

"We have an exclusive relationship with Sony," Cage told CVG. "The relationship on Heavy Rain has been fantastic. They trusted us from day one, supported us all the way through. It was really a very risky project [for them] and they never let us down.

"Being a part of a company with what are probably the best studios in the world is something really pleasant for us. We're happy to continue this relationship and create content for the PlayStation brand. But they fund our projects, so we're staying exclusive to PlayStation."

Cage added that he also hold a great sense of loyalty towards Sony after the platform holder backed Heavy Rain.

"I am very loyal in general - or I try to be. I know that trusting me is always a big risk and when people do, I feel like I owe them something," said Cage. "It's not just because I want to thank them, though. We have a relationship that works, we're excited by the platform - we think it's the best platform out there. We're glad to continue to work this way."
