Xbox Game Studios |OT5| DOOM posting not allowed. Except for posting about DOOM

What do we think Fallout Worlds will be?

Itā€™s likely related to the Fall update of FO76 (Private worlds with customizable settings, bigger budgets, etc. and probably mods too).

Someone needs to update the Initiativeā€™s website lolā€¦ not even one mention of the perfect dark announcement and last piece of news posted is from June 2018.

Also Drew Murray is still one of the pictures haha

I think Phil has been frustrated with the entire process of creating the Initiativeā€¦ lmao.

He mentioned recently how hard it is to build a studio from the ground up and they will likely never do it again.

Even moreso when you newly formed studio is filled with high profile hires from around the industry.

Drew leaving for his mental health, then rejoining Insomniac at a lower position probably put a lot of pressure on The Initiative and a big spotlight on the way talent can change hands in the industry.

Building a studio just takes too much time and a lot can wrong.

Sometimes The Outer Worldsā€™ art style looks so beautiful. So hyped for The Outer Worlds 2 with full MS backing. :smiling_imp:

Are they in trouble? Seems like no one cares anymore, is there anyone left at the studio?

They nailed the aesthetic. Itā€™s a gorgeous game. :heart_eyes:

Seems they just need to hire a decent web designerā€¦ lol

Indeed, hehe. Wonder why that is often neglected? Itā€™s like a shop window of olden times, it should look nice and inviting.

Was watching a brief clip of Josh Sawyerā€™s streamā€¦ and he says heā€™s played Avowed. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

My hype is still immeasurable for that IP.

Iā€™m keeping updated a list of whatā€™s releasing this year from Xbox.

Big unknowns are Grounded and Ghostwire Tokyo (initially planned for 2021 but still no release date)

Yeah i highly doubt grounded will hit 1.0 this year, They still seem like they have a LOT of things they want to add.

I doubt about Ghostwire Tokyo too.

It was planned for October in the Sonyā€™s CES 2021 video presentation from last January (before it was deleted) but I feel like the Japanese gaming industry have been hit harder by COVID (but maybe thatā€™s just an impression) so I would not be surprised if it gets delayed ultimately.
