Microsoft and Xbox have many games in the works. Both internal studios, like Fable, Hellblade II, Avowed or Clockwork Revolution, as well as external studios, known as Second Party, with titles like Towerbone or the new People Can Fly IP. And that’s only what we know, because behind the scenes there will be many more, whose code names or clues we only know through rumors and leaks.

One of them is Vonnegut Projecta game which, according to various sources, was developed by Possibility Space and which it would be a new Shadowrun. However, the latest reports point to a cancellation of the project resulting from the studio’s upcoming closure of operations.

Possibility that studios are about to close

According to reports Nicole Carpenter from Polygon, the studio would close its doors and put all its projects aside

. In an email from the study co-founder, Jeff Strain, some of the reasons are revealed, such as breach of confidential information, which includes the financial report of the company and the external partner with which They were developing what was known as Project Vonnegut.

A name that Jeff Strain himself gives in his email and which would be published by an external partner. Obviously there is no reference to either Xbox or Shadowrun, but it is at least curious that the name is the same that was leaked a few months ago and was linked to this IP.

Of course, it looks like we’ll never see this exclusive new title come to fruition and it’s unlikely that, given how the deal ended, we’ll know the details for a long time.
