We still don't know who the developer is. Maybe it's an internal team at Paradox.
Edit: The Chinese Room was rumoured though, thanks Zor.

Not getting my hopes up. I mean, MAYBE they can pull a Dead Island 2 and actually release a good game. But I doubt it after all that has happened.
This is basically what I wanted Redfall to be when rumors of it first started.
You can imagine how my hype for this game is supernaturally high right now 🙏
Is this even going to be the same game it was supposed to be before all the storie started coming out?
I finished Coteries and liked it but this one bugged out on me and I can't progress from a certain point, the buttons just don't work and I get stuck on a screen. Eternal sadness
Have they scrapped everything and started over or just finishing the work from the other devs that left?
That's interesting; how big are they? They haven't released anything since 2020.
Maybe they have a lot of the Assets, starting completely fresh would take a lot of work if this is really coming in the near-future.

Seriously ? They had to rebuild since the purchase and have only released an Apple Arcade game since, they would have had to do some major hiring to take on something like this.
I was more curious if they scrapped all the written work of the previous writers, more than anything else, since they were the original devs and all. If they're starting over even for the writing part of the game then this is probably ages away, since they'd have to create all new quests, NPCs, dialogues, voice acting, cutscenes etc.

Maybe this is one of the games that Tim Cain is consulting on since he left Obsidian in addition to The Outer Worlds 2.
I could be wrong but I feel like I heard somewhere that they simply switched devs and the project was handed to a new team who would build on top of it rather than start over.
The gameplay they showed for it before actually looked 🔥, i would be incredibly disappointed if they didn't continue the promising work already done on it.

Yeah, in 2020. He confirmed it on his YouTube channel recently. He's semi-retired but he's still working freelance on The Outer Worlds 2 and two other games that he can't talk about (I think one of them is Project Cobalt at inXile, but that's just speculation on my part due to the Brian Fargo connection).
Did we ever hear the reason why the original devs were all let go in the first place? Think we only heard the project leads were let go and then they "switched devs" then didn't announce who it was then have gone dark for what feels like forever now. I want this to be good but I'm going to have to see who the dev is and what they've produced first.
Mitsoda no longer being on board is a huge bummer.
This is the source for that stuff:
