Recent reports indicate developer People Can Fly canceled Outriders 2 among its terminated projects.
The Polish studio, renowned for Outriders and Gears of War: Judgment, confirmed additional job cuts in early June when axing two projects: codenamed Project Gemini and Project Bifrost.
While CEO Sebastian Wojciechowski's statement didn't name publishers involved, PCF's website revealed Gemini was a Square Enix partnership while Bifrost remained self-published.
These cancellations forced internal restructuring, coming two months after scrapping Project Dagger - an action-adventure title originally planned for co-development with Take-Two Interactive until their September 2022 withdrawal.
A Thumb Wars report verified by Insider Gaming alleges Project Gemini was actually the planned Outriders sequel. Development allegedly reached motion capture recording before termination.
Square Enix provided no comment when IGN reached out. People Can Fly hasn't responded.
The studio previously downsized operations when dismissing 120 employees last December. Current projects include collaborations with Krafton (Project Echo), Sony (Project Delta), and Microsoft on Gears of War: E-Day.
IGN's Outriders review scored 7/10, praising its "satisfying sci-fi gunplay and loot systems that outweigh narrative shortcomings." PCF's latest release is Bulletstorm VR, a virtual reality adaptation of the iconic shooter for Meta Quest and PSVR 2.
