The Unknown 9 franchise, an ambitious cross-media project reminiscent of Assassin’s Creed and Tomb Raider, has been officially cancelled by its developers. The initial video game, which debuted last year, failed to meet expectations and did not garner sufficient interest, leading the studio to conclude that the series did not merit further exploration.
Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The termination of the Unknown 9 franchise reflects critical gaps in its developmental execution. Despite its ambitious premise, the initial game’s underperformance highlights the importance of not only having innovative concepts but also ensuring robust implementation and audience engagement. The studio’s ability to acknowledge and address their shortcomings is crucial to learning and improving future endeavors.
