From looking at the gameplay, it just looks like Fortnite, this would have been very poorly received by timesplitters fans.

Another legendary series that ends brutally.. glad this never came out, it’s an insult to the original one

I'm glad this got cancelled, what's with the Fornite knockoff? TimeSplitters was an FPS, not a 3rd person battle royale.

What were they thinking?

Looks fornitey would've been cool at the time tbh

I got into a minor disagreement with their staff shortly after the closure, after i commented about a Timesplitters HD remaster to gauge public reception before such a big project here:

Looking at the gameplay footage, it's clear that the staff (no matter what level) we're out of their depth, putting lots of hours into a game that would of been DOA if Embracer didn't shut it down.

They removed the footage. Here it is if anyone's interested: https://youtu.be/BesmfPD8fj...

It's basically a Fortnite clone. Seems like a good decision to cancel this game.

Excited to see these prototypes out there and I hope the internet can play them.

From the leaked screenshots, it looks better than the recent cancelled Timesplitters game imo.

Game companies are not mature enough to handle this concept without turning it into a casino.

The remakes of battlefront should have been more simular to the originals. CoD/battlefield reskinned as Star Wars was not the anwser.
