Prey 2 Lives; Delayed

[Apr 19, 2012, 1:00 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Bethesda Blog has an update on Prey 2, Human Head's upcoming first-person shooter sequel that was rumored last month as having been cancelled. Word is the game is not cancelled, just delayed beyond the end of this year:

Development of Prey 2 has not been cancelled but the game will not be released in 2012 as planned. The delay is due to the fact that game development has not progressed satisfactorily this past year, and the game does not currently meet our quality standards. Prey 2 has shown great promise and we regret disappointing our fans. We have made a substantial investment in game development to deliver the experience fans want. We are determined only to release the AAA game that fans rightfully expect, and are unwilling to compromise our quality standards to meet a release schedule.

Shame, was really looking forward to this one towards the end of the year. Oh well at least its still kicking.

For less than a second there, I thought you were going to say you were looking forward to this one being officially cancelled.

I personally think the teasers so far are absolutely horrible, promising nothing but a game that has nothing to do with Prey. All those weird, clichè, cyber-sci-fi "special" powers you have in the first person shooters of late really tire me, honestly.

Any of you played Syndicate? I quit 2 hours in. Horrible. Just horrible.

Fair enough, I didn't really get into the original much. I beat it but the characters and universe never really grabbed me. I thought this looked like a more interesting spin on the usual cyber FPS fare but to be fair they haven't shown off much actual gameplay.
