The initiative is Microsoft’s most secretive studio. It was founded in 2018 with industry heavyweights and has had many eyes on it since announcing his work on the franchise Perfectly dark. Except that since the Game Awards 2020 trailer, most of the news reaching our ears isn’t the most reassuring. And that of the day doesn’t change the situation. Indeed, it appears that the director of the studio’s future and first game, Daniel NeuburgerHe left the company last February. At least that’s what the Linkedin profile shows.
This is the second departure from a key position in the past 12 months. It used to be Drew Murray, who worked on the design that returned to Insomniac Games. Should we be seeing signs of bad omens for the studio’s production? As mentioned above, the message sent is not encouraging. However, the image is not entirely black. In fact, last October the studio found a new general manager in the person of Michael Bastien. Less known to the general public, he worked as a producer at Bungie halo 2 and gloriole 3, and executive producer and partner at Turn10. In short, the man is very familiar with large-scale productions. In summary, there is more than settings to see progress Perfect Dark that would brighten our horizons!
