4-vs-1 co-op RPG Shadow Realms is canceled

The relatively 'new' and interesting game Shadow Realms that BioWare unveiled they were working on last year during GameCom, has at present been canceled BioWare revealed today. Which is quite sad since the game itself looked very promising from the tiny bits of gameplay that was shown during GamesCom last year. The premise of the asymmetrical and dungeonesque multiplayer seemed very highly-seasoned as well.

BioWare cancels Shadow Realms

Over at the Shadow Realms homepage, Jeff Hickman the general Managing director for BioWare Austin said today that Shadow Realms sadly is canceled, and that the squad is needed on other projects.

"We've made the decision to not move forward with development of Shadow Realms. Nosotros fully recognize that this news is disappointing to some of our fans, so I desire to explain more behind this decision."

He continues, "While the team did amazing work on the game concept and we got lots of bully feedback from our fans at events and through other game testing, right now there are other projects for the team to work on inside the BioWare studios for the coming year and beyond. We've got an incredibly talented squad here at the Austin studio, and they are excited and already deep on new projects within the BioWare family, ones that will make some great BioWare games fifty-fifty ameliorate."

Now It's understandable that there are other IP's and games that they tin can piece of work on, withal is that really reason enough to can an unabridged project that actually had playable code? Shouldn't they at to the lowest degree have run with the Alpha they had sign-ups for? In any case it seems that we won't be seeing much of Shadow Realms anytime soon.

Jeff continues in his statement, "These include additional ongoing enhancements to the honour-winning Dragon Age: Inquisition, every bit well as the side by side game in the Mass Outcome series and other new IP, But the biggest focus for our squad in BioWare Austin will be on Star Wars™: The Onetime Republic™. As every Star Wars™ fan knows, this is a massive year in the Star Wars universe. We accept some neat plans for expanding this epic game this year, and look forward to sharing the news nearly those plans with our players in the coming weeks."

The but real skilful matter that comes out of this seems to exist that they will spend more time on the new Mass Result, and mayhap some new content for Dragon Age Inquisition, equally well as hints of a completely new IP, color me intrigued.
