According to a report from VGC, which cites anonymous sources, Ubisoft has canceled their plans for a sequel to the open world adventure game Immortals Fenyx Rising. The game was reportedly in early development before it was scrapped earlier this month “due to perceived challenges around establishing the IP”, and the team had doubts about the game’s future when Ubisoft announced it would be focusing on its major franchises. Immortals Fenyx Rising launched on December 3, 2020 is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC via the Epic Games Store, Ubisoft Store, and Uplay.
The game’s details via Ubisoft:
Immortals Fenyx Rising is a fresh and witty take on the open world action adventure genre, featuring dynamic action, combat and stories inspired by Greek mythology. Roam freely across a beautifully stylized world and use extraordinary abilities gifted by the gods against fearsome mythological monsters. Treacherous trials, heroic feats and the very underworld itself await your bravery.
