According to some sources, the recent split Google Cloud Gaming would have canceled a multiplayer game led by a former creative of Assassin's Creed, a sequel to Journey to the Savage Planet and would have withdrawn the proposals for Hideo Kojima e Yu Suzuki to create Stadia-exclusive games. In a statement released on Feb.1, the company said it will once again focus on offering its technology and platform tools to external partners this year. This would then see the company shut down all of its internal development teams.
Among its many third-party licensing deals, Stadia had worked with the music game company Harmonix on an original title that would be practically complete, according to people with knowledge of his plans. Although the game in question may still be released, some sources have said that the complications related to music licensing for the Pro service of Stadia had caused significant disruption behind the scenes. In response to this story, the CEO of Harmonix Steve Janiak denied that the Stadia game not yet announced by the company had been canceled or that it encountered issues related to music licensing, however he said he would release the title for other platforms if needed:
Even though Google has changed its strategy, we remain incredibly excited about what we have been working on for Stadia and if the project is not released for Stadia we will bring it to other platforms.
It is believed that the project Kojima Productions has been positioned as an episodic horror game. Sources indicated that the Japanese studio wanted to join the cloud gaming space, but last year the deal would have been blocked by GM by Stadia Phil Harrison. This is perhaps the project designer Hideo Kojima was referring to last summer when he commented on the cancellation of an "important" project: "I'm pretty angry, but this is the gaming industry and that's how it works." Additionally, Stadia's decision to shut down its proprietary game development teams has seen several projects canceled at various stages of development. However, confirmations are missing of what is written above and therefore we invite you to take the information processed rigorously with pliers. In addition to that, did you know that in the past few hours the services of PlayStation Network are they experiencing various problems?
