Bethesda Confirms FPS Sequel Prey 2 Is Officially Cancelled.............
Bethesda has announced that shooter sequel Prey 2 has unfortunately been cancelled. Prey 2’s been in the works the last 3 years or so but has found its development consistently troubled, with Bethesda finally pulling the plug this week.
Intended to be a follow-up to Human Head Studios’ pretty well received original, Bethesda’s vice president Pete Hines has admitted at PAX Australia that Prey 2 is officially cancelled as it wasn’t up to the quality that the publisher was expecting. It’s a bit of a shame all told because it was looking pretty neat in its trailer back at E3 2011, but Hines has at least not written off the idea of returning to the franchise at some point.It was a game we believed in, but we never felt that it got to where it needed to be - we never saw a path to success if we finished it,” said Hines. “It wasn't up to our quality standard and we decided to cancel it. It's no longer in development. It's a franchise we still believe we can do something with -- we just need to see what that something is."
Prey 2 was officially unveiled back in March 2011 and was once again being worked on by Human Head Studios. It was set to feature U.S. Marshal Killian Samuels, who after a plane crash into an alien sphere wakes up seven years later to find himself a bounty hunter on the alien world Exodus, with no recollection of prior events.
Disappointed that Prey 2 will never get to see the light of day? What are you hoping Human Head Games works on next?
