Blizzard’s cancelled survival game, codenamed Odyssey, had been in development for over six years.
Yesterday, it was reported Microsoft was laying off 1900 employees from across its video game teams and that Blizzard’s in-the-works survival game had been cancelled. This game was being helmed by ex-Far Cry boss Dan Hay, and would have transported players to a “whole new universe”.
A new report by Bloomberg has now shared further details on Blizzard’s newly-cancelled project. The game started development six years ago, following a concept pitch by Blizzard developer Craig Amai in 2017. The idea was to create a survival game in a similar vein to Minecraft and Rust, but with a more polished experience.
