Blizzard was preparing a secret game and it was obviously leaked. Images of this canceled project are now everywhere, it looked quite promising.
Some time ago, Blizzard, the creator of World of Warcraft, or Overwatch 2, announced the development of an ambitious open-world survival game. The famous publisher/developer obviously wanted to change the horizon a little.
Unfortunately, the axe fell at the beginning of 2024. Due to problems that the studio was obviously unable to solve, the game was nipped in the bud. Dead and buried, Odyssey will never see the light of day until recently.
Blizzard’s secret game has leaked, pictures are everywhere
The first images were published on a well-known Russian social network called VK. Subsequently, it was broadcast everywhere. Gameplay images from the famous Project Odyssey, the canceled game from Blizzard. If obviously we can’t really verify the statements of the person who published them, since it’s a brand new license that we didn’t know about on paper, it’s still very likely.
The pictures published on some host reveal to us a very classic survival game. There you will find many tools and resources, as well as some statistics. We are on familiar ground. Even a logo refers to this famous Odyssey project, as well as the names of the players in the internal testing phase. The game should in fact be a multiplayer game, like many similar titles.
We will also notice an artistic touch very close to that of Blizzard, although, as we can see, there was still a lot of work to be done. It was obviously very colorful, a bit cartoonish, not far from a World of Warcraft. At first glance, we were once again in a heroic fantasy world.
If we take the images for what they are supposed to be, the developers obviously had a pretty solid foundation in hand before they stopped production. As a reminder, during the cancellation, the studio explained that the game was canceled due to technical issues shortly after Xbox acquired Activision Blizzard.
It’s a shame, a survival game from Blizzard could have aroused the curiosity of many fans.
But for now, we can sit on that. As a reminder, Blizzard is currently working on a new player-versus-emergency (PvE) game that we don’t know much about yet, except that there were recruitments a few months ago.
