Spare a thought for Syphon Filter and Days Gone developer Bend Studio. After the previous launched to constructive (however not overwhelmingly nice) important reactions, it could work on an open-world live-service multiplayer title that was cancelled earlier this yr. Nevertheless, that will not be the one mission it shelved.
As found by Timur222, the LinkedIn profile of recreation designer Jacob Feith signifies “a number of cancelled/unannounced tasks.” He was liable for creating open-world occasions and missions, prototyping occasions, puzzles, and programs, collaborating with animators for in-game cinematics, and rather more.
On condition that he’s been working on the studio since 2019, which is when Days Gone launched, it’s important to marvel what number of tasks have been left by the wayside. Whereas 30 % of Bend Studio’s employees has allegedly confronted layoffs, the “unannounced” half offers some hope that it’s engaged on one thing new.
Bend Studio’s final mission was Days Gone Remastered – you’ll be able to take a look at our assessment right here. Neither Sony nor the developer have confirmed something new, although the latter dedicated to “creating cool s***” after its reside service mission’s cancellation.
