Five Big Games Still Lingering Somewhere in Development Hell

This year promises to be a big year for gaming, and it will definitely be one of the greatest if any of these big MIA projects finally made it into gamers' hands.

Pretty sure Silk Song and Dragon Age are going smoothly. The other 2 can be assumed to be quietly cancelled knowing their publishers and Metroid will most likely be shown off this year.

Dragon Age going smoothly??? Directors leaving, people leaving in general, terrible working conditions....not sure how you define smoothly.

lol Dragon Age development has been anything but smooth

I remember in 2017 when Nintendo showed off the Metroid Prime 4 logo, and some Nintendo defenders claimed "Just because they only showed a logo, doesn't mean that's all they've worked on for the game."

As history has proven, they were wrong. Nintendo showed off a logo back in 2017 because that's literally all they had.

I think Beyond Good and Evil 2 can stay there unless they are going to just rename it to a new IP

Pretty sure BG&E2 is dead at this point - along with the other game Ancel was working on before he left - I think it was called WILD. Anyone remember that from a PS conference years ago?

Dreadwolf isn't in development hell anymore and is finally getting its reveal in the summer - since 2016 the game has been scrapped and restarted three times but its been going pretty well since the last reboot when EA finally allowed BioWare to just get on with making a single player game.

I'm not sure Perfect Dark is in development hell either - like it could be but we haven't really heard much to suggest either way - imo they just showed the trailer off when the game was still in pre-production. Xbox were desperate for anything and this is all they had at the time. And the reason we haven't heard anything since is just because it's in normal development and games take 5 years to make. The help from a support studio was typically overblown on N4G because nearly every game has this.

Hollow Knight is a good game. I still need to finished it, but it's still uploaded, which is something, very few games get a permanent space on my PS5.

Great game but it took me a long time to beat it. I would play it inbetween other games.

VersusDMC10d ago

I didn't get the hype at first and put it down for a year. Then after going on a Metroidvania binge with ender lillies and Wonder Labirinth i picked it up again and ended up loving it.

Crows9010d ago

It's an incredible game....don't know why you wouldn't just play it for it's own sake...probably don't need to play before silk song necessarily.

Nacho_Z10d ago

I remember before I played HK I wasn't particularly bothered, I knew it was highly recommended but I didn't really fancy it. One of my all time favourites now.

There's absolutely no need to play HK before Silksong for lore reasons but if you're interested in the latter you'd be mad to skip the former.

Impressive new sci-fi Metroidvania could tide you over until Hollow Knight Silksong

BioGun sets itself apart from other Metroidvania classics with its unusual premise, and could be a stopgap until Hollow Knight Silksong.

I don’t like this art style. Would rather have pixel art or anything else.

It seems like it’s taking forever to release.
