Microsoft recently announced widespread layoffs for 343 Industries, which may spell bad news for the post-launch promises of Halo Infinite.
A job listing published by the UK studio reveals that its next project will be another entirely new IP.
Outriders developer People Can Fly's next game has been canceled after its publishing agreement with Take-Two Interactive fell through.
"the capital group of PCF Group S.A."
If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.
Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

This is for the hardcore people that have 2500 h in the game. They basically play that one game the whole year.

Bruh? *That* may be the sign? Not the fact that post launch content has already seen numerous delays and controversies?
I think it was a big sign imo.
Or MS could hand it to anyone of their studios, like it went from Bungie to 343.

So it wasnt the embarrassing quality it was revealed in, the 1yr delay, the development lead leaving, the unfinished state it launched in DESPITE the 1yr delay, the cancelation of several roadmap goals, or the horrendously greedy microtransactions for multiplayer....those werent the sign? Really goes to show the state of denial a lot of the MS fanbase is in to only now think "i think this game may have had issues" after everything
