Et oui ! Une rumeur est apparue il y a quelques heures comme quoi le jeu Shadow Realms, développé par Bioware et édité par EA, aurait été annulé.

Malheureusement, Bioware à confirmé que le développement du jeu a pris fin et a tenu à remercier et s'excuser auprès de ses fans qui l'attendaient :

We’ve made the decision to not move forward with development of Shadow Realms. We fully recognize that this news is disappointing to some of our fans, so I want to explain more behind this decision.

While the team did amazing work on the game concept and we got lots of great feedback from our fans at events and through other game testing, right now there are other projects for the team to work on within the BioWare studios for the coming year and beyond. We’ve got an incredibly talented team here at the Austin studio, and they are excited and already deep on new projects within the BioWare family, ones that will make some great BioWare games even better.

For all the people that registered for the Shadow Realms Closed Alpha, we’re working on a way to say thank-you for signing up. To all those players that gave us feedback at Gamescom and PAX, and those that shared their thoughts and impressions in the past months, we thank you for being part of the conversation.

Pour rappel, le jeu avait été annoncé à la Gamescom et uniquement sur PC.

Quoi qu'il en soit, Bioware travaille toujours sur le nouveau Mass Effect 4, qui ne devrait pas pointer le bout de son nez avant 2016.
