The impact of Xbox’s massive layoffs continues to grow. According to the latest news, Bethesda has canceled a new PvP FPS game that has never been announced. It is generally believed that this game is likely to be a new project created by MachineGames, the developer of “Wolfenstein (Wolfenstein)”. After the news was exposed, many players lamented that another work that had not yet had time to debut has already entered history ahead of schedule.
It was canceled before it was made public, and the mysterious FPS plan was exposed
The news pointed out that this work, codenamed Project Platinum, is a PvP first-person shooter game, and the development work is handled by MachineGames. However, with the recent large-scale layoffs at Xbox, the project has also been included in the cancellation list, and it has been ended before players even waited for the official name.
Although Bethesda has not officially confirmed the existence of Project Platinum, multiple sources have pointed out that the game has been determined not to continue development.
MachineGames’ next step is still the “Indiana Jones” DLC
Thankfully, it seems that this time around it’s just one of MachineGames’ new projects that’s been canceled. The studio is still continuing to develop follow-up DLC for “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (Indiana Jones: The Ancient Circle/Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Great Circle),” so the core team has not completely stopped. However, what is more worrying for players is that Xbox has recently canceled a number of unreleased works, which has also made many people wonder whether there will be more new games under development in the future that will quietly disappear before their official debut.
