Less logic, more faux outrage.

Fable I'm not worried about unless we get through game awards and we've heard nothing. It's expected to be 2026 so I expect a drop at game awards and then a press tour and build up for 2026 release. If we hit 2026 and have seen nothing, then I suspect trouble.

Perfect Dark I already suspect trouble.

I felt the same way, but now....I don't know. I want to see at least some of it, but now I'm a bit more worried considering this team has never made a Fable game.

sure about that?

Thread 'Perfect Dark Cancelled, The Initiative Shut Down'

Wednesday at 6:03 PM

Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well — joining Everwild and ZeniMax's new IP, and other unannounced projects

Microsoft is closing down The Initiative, after 7 years. The partnership with Crystal Dynamics will end, and "Perfect Dark" will be cancelled.

Earlier, we reported exclusively that Perfect Dark was on the chopping block as part of Microsoft's latest round of cuts. Now, we can confirm the sad news.

Today, Microsoft revealed broad layoffs hitting 4% of its global workforce, across every division at the company. Many of those layoffs are hitting Xbox, with staffers in various departments receiving notice today. Many of those affected include Xbox studio The Initiative, which is sadly being closed down.

Perfect...

Meh, still doesn't change much about what I said. The game wasn't officially cancelled at the time of my post. Rumors are just rumors until something officially announced. Glad you feel good about yourself.
