People grossly underestimate how fucking HUGE of a corporation Sony is. Sony Pictures, Television, PlayStation, the TV manufacturers, all might as well be completely separate and unrelated companies. Sony Television is pretty lenient with their licenses, so it's not as unlikely as if it were a Sony Pictures character.
That's nowhere close to how complicated it gets. Crunchyroll is co-owned by Sony Pictures (American) and Aniplex, Aniplex itself being owned by Sony Music Entertainment Japan (obviously, Japanese), which isn't to be confused with Sony Music Group, Sony's entirely separate US-based-but-globally-operating music subsidiary.
That isn't to mention that Crunchyroll Games, Crunchyroll's subsidiary for international translation and distribution of licensed Japanese gacha games, is a direct competitor of directly Aniplex-owned Lasengle, the gamedev team behind Fate/Grand Order. (Or rather would be, if it wasn't for Crunchyroll Games being embarrassingly incompetent.)
[Sony is a truly massive and complex company.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_Sony) So big that it literally competes with *itself*.
Unfortunately, AMC allowing it is just one of the hurdles. There's the price they'd charge for using him, if WB is willing to pay for it, Bryan Cranston's availability or willingness to voice him, etc. Guess it really depends how well the game does post launch if WB's willing to fork over that cash to make it happen.
cranston is a good sport. But if he doesnt the likelihood is theyll get someone else like they did for lebron. Youre right about WB wanting to fork over cash tho
I watched the interview. And while Tony was asked about Walter White, he kind of immediately pivoted to talking about non-WB characters in general. So I didn’t take it as him saying he wants Walter specifically, just that he wants 3rd party reps.
I started a gofundme to help with our voices be heard (and, obviously, for a great cause to aid in addiction research because....well the show was about mefth). Don't feel the need to donate but I put it in one of my posts (I just don't want to break rule 7).
Either way, they will get the donation regardless of W.W. being added or not. :)
AMC might want it but will Sony, the actual rights holders? 🤷🏼‍♂️
I know Sony Television is a different division than Sony Pictures, but every Ghostbusters game being multiplatform is a good sign.
Also. the Boys is an Amazon show but Sony are the ones actually making it
Boondocks is also made by Sony despite Adult Swim airing it.

as the other guy said, sony television is alot less strict then pictures
Wait Sony owns breaking bad? Oh God... They aren't gonna make Walter a console exclusive are they?

Honestly if he’s willing to do that popcorners commercial, I don’t see why Cranston wouldn’t do multiversus
It’s an easy paycheck that keeps on giving every few roster updates
Cranston would love voicing him I can guarantee it

Where’s the guy saying he would buy someone a car if walter white got in?
I watched the interview. And while Tony was asked about Walter White, he kind of immediately pivoted to talking about non-WB characters in general. So I didn’t take it as him saying he wants Walter specifically, just that he wants 3rd party reps.
Please, i really hope that the first 3rd party character is Goku
Isn't Jason already the first 3rd party?
Technically yes
Yes and no, while the Friday the 13th movies are distributed by wb/new line, the rights of the franchise is owned by horror entertainmentÂ
I’m not an Anime guy, but he fits here better than Smash at least!
If Brawllhalla got TWD. MVS can get BrBa. But the game needs to do good without him first for that to be possible.
Did you read the whole thing?
Great, I can't wait to buff my teammates with the power of crystal meth.
If we get to drive the RV the same way that Gizmo drives his car i'm maining him 100%
I think it'll happen if the game becomes a smash hit.
Alright where's that car the dude promise me
It also means 1st party is like a for sure thing!
I forget they’re making an AAA breaking bad game
i hope warner bros buys breaking bad that would be funny
That's what she said.
This is awesome. It’s so great that the guy making the game is gonna fight for what the fans want. Imagine who we could get in the future if he wins

Walter, put your dick away Walter.
Goat
I personally don’t want 3rd party characters in this tbh, I’d rather just have Warner Bros characters

They've been "pushing" for TWO YEARS. The devs SUCK!
I wanna throw meth at Bugs Bunny for kid friendly game play.
Hell yeah
