Games get canceled all the time, and while we occasionally hear about them via official announcements or reporting, more often they are canceled before they ever reach the news. “2K has also assured me that the company believes H13 can deliver a critical and commercial success, and we will begin developing future projects soon.”Īpproximately 200 people are impacted by the game's cancellation, Kotaku reports.
“We are confident that there are many opportunities for H13 employees to work on other games in development, both at H13 and across the label," wrote studio head Haden Blackman in an email to staff today.
Update 4:03pm PT: A Kotaku report has provided a few more details about the canceled title, saying it was a third-person action title similar to Destiny, and was canceled because Take-Two determined the costs of development were too high compared to the game's commercial viability. The studio's employees will meet to discuss next steps on Thursday. The report goes on to say that the game had been in development since 2017, and had troubles with reboots, technological hiccups, and COVID-19. Update: According to a Bloomberg report, the unannounced game in question was being developed by Mafia 3 studio Hangar 13 and was code-named Volt.
