Electronic Arts and Sweden-based game developer Starbreeze have announced the cancellation of one of two of its current, unannounced projects.
Starbreeze has been working on a licensed game based off the Jason Bourne character from author Robert Ludlum, which publisher EA secured the rights to last year. The studio was also focusing on Project RedLime, which was said to be a “reinventing” of an old EA franchise.
“We will continue to focus only on big productions together with EA,” said Starbreeze CEO Johan Kristiansson in a statement. “Our relationship with EA is stronger than ever, and the aim now is to spend more resources on the game that demonstrated the greatest potential. This game is already in full production.”
A spokesperson for Electronic Arts re-confirmed the project’s cancellation to IGN, but would not specify which of the two titles has been canned.
“This is correct. EA is focusing resource on fewer, bigger titles,” the company said. “We’re working with the team at Starbreeze to make a great game. We have nothing title-specific to announce today.”
