🕑 Added 2021-04-16 15:31:22 +0000 UTCKeeping up with our endurable queue of lost games waiting to be remembered, we added 3 cancelled games to the Unseen64 archive:
Siren in the Maelstrom [Xbox 360, PS3]: cancelled fantasy adventure that was in development by Silicon Knights in the late ‘00s, but never officially announced. The title of this lost project was leaked online in different ways, when Canada Telefilm (an organization that lists projects approved for government grants) announced they would invest into Silicon Knights for their new game “Siren in the Maelstrom”. As we predicted at the time, unfortunately the game was never released https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/16/siren-maelstrom-silicon-knights-cancelled/
Bladeball [Xbox, PC]: cancelled extreme sport game that was in development by Cat Mother around 2002, for PC and the original Xbox. It was inspired by the Rollerball movie and you could imagine it as a more “violent” version of soccer / football: two teams in an arena, trying to score their point by any means https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/16/bladeball-cat-mother-xbox-pc-cancelled/
Wish [PC]: cancelled MMORPG that was in development by Mutable Realms between 2002 and 2005, planned to be released on PC. Like many overly ambitious projects, Wish fell under the weight of its own concept. The game promised to be the world’s first “Ultra Massive” Online RPG: according to Mutable Realms the game would simultaneously support up to 10.000 players in a single world / server, with no divided zones nor shards https://www.unseen64.net/2021/04/16/wish-mutable-realms-mmorpg-cancelled/
