Over a year after it's announcement? No wonder I missed it. Thank you!
The game was playable at TGS ( i think 2013 and 2014?).
But it seems they did not know what direction to take with the game.
Holy cow, for real? It's gotta be scrapped a couple of times and build up again or something.
Have we ever heard anything of Away ever since it's announcement? I know it's only been a year, but..
Yes, it was confirmed to be cancelled. Even then, canceling an entire AAA game outright is probably a different level than cancelling a single port SKU.
Pokémon Sleep. I just don't know how you can turn a mobile app that tracks your breathing into a game.
In any case, it was announced last year that Skull & Bones won't ship this FY, so it is normal that there is no communication around it right now. As for BG&E2, that game had it's last update on the website a month ago. Not my place to say more, as I don't work on that project (though there is a team working hard on it in our studio).
Ancel pushed for years to get a chance to make that game until he got free reigns over it. That game is his baby and it's not getting cancelled.
You mean The Cycle?
It's actually a pretty great game, far more well made than Spec Ops. Just a different genre and focus.
Dead Island 2 hasn't been with Yager for years. As for their projects, the truth is that Yager never had a major financial hit (even if Spec Ops is an excellent game), and independent studios can't be too picky with their projects. That is just a fact in the current industry climate. They also haven't released too many games themselves, considering how old the studio is.
Phantom Dust remake. No way Microsoft is throwing more money at it after effectively dissolving the first studio that had a crack at it.
I wonder if any games will get switched from current gen to nextgen. Imagine if WiLD turns out to be a PS5 game now and the design has somehow been enhanced or reconfigured around the PS5's SSD etc.
I really want Dead Island 2 though. Very hype.

Mate, what? Duke came out, the first of the FF games on Game Pass released not too long ago and Star Citizen is getting regular updates....
The sequel to Barkey Shut Up and Jam Gaiden
2012: Kickstarter is launched and is successful, game is given a release window of late 2013 or early 2014.
2016: Devs confirm that their Kickstarter funds have been depleted (despite making well over their initial funding goal).
2019: Devs confirm that only two staff members are left on the project, neither of them people who worked on the original game.
It still hasn't been officially cancelled, but c'mon.

I would argue the mundanity of Spec OP's mechanics were by design
I mean I wanna say yeah but their game output hasn't been the best. They also sorta just drop the games they work on so it's not too great.
Remember when Skull & Bones was announced and everyone was like "Welp. That's too bad for Sea of Thieves. Skull & Bones is going to eat it's lunch."? Pretty funny in hindsight.
Did they say it was an mmo? I thought it was more of a single player/co-op ship to ship combat game with a side emphasis on pvp modes.
Tabata was basically the cheerleader for the Final Fantasy Type sub series within SE. They even trade marked Final Fantasy Type 1 and Type 2 before 0 released. I'm honestly not sure why the Type Next content was included with Type 0 HD if indeed a squeal project was never green lit in the first place.
With him gone, I'm doubtful we'll see anything else of that sub series.
I don't think I'm full of shit, but it would be ironic because I think that somehow a lot of the framework of the cancelled Pirates of the Caribbean was implemented into Black Flag, so that'd be quite ironic. A quick Google doesn't reveal anything like that but I swear I recently saw something from someone about it... Berenstein universe shit.
I'm pretty sure it was basically a gritty 'Sea of Thieves'.
Its so sad. The Type-series couldve been such a cool spinoff thing.
Ah. I don't really think of Sea of Thieves as an MMO. More of just a shared world, but I get what you mean.
...as Persona : Shin Megami Tensei featuring Joker from Persona 5.
Let's goooo. Can't wait to date (and after reaching max level Social Link, redeem) Lucifer-chan and YHVH-san.
Surprisingly, I'd give it an 80% chance of being released. Ever since they handled the IP to a new developer a couple of years ago, they've been providing monthly non fluff updates.
Project Phoenix, on the other hand....
Hold on, you are not supposed to play as actual Pirates in Skull & Bones?
Being a Pirate is the reason AC4 is still so beloved nowadays despite it not being the only AC with Naval combat.
How did Ubisoft miss the point so hard?
Ushiro from Level 5. Originally announced many years ago for PSP, then canceled, then re-emerged on Switch, but Level 5 is in shambles.
90s Arcade Racer. Stuck into Nicalis's wormhole.
Well, it came out for PS4

I find it hilarious that Agent has never been officially cancelled. It's still coming guys, exclusive to PS3!
I kinda wonder if that one will transition to a F2P model eventually.
Not sure if multiplayer is a component at all in the game, but if there is, i can see that happening.
Not sure why, but I kinda get that feeling from that game. Like if they ever want it to release it'll need to be in early access, and they might as well go for the Sea of Theives or Warframe model of continually improving it over time.
What makes you think Dying Light 2 won't sell well even if it's a better game than DL1?
