Back in December 2023, Starbreeze Studios announced their plans for an original D&D game, codenamed Project Baxter. Now almost two years later, the game has been cancelled.
Originally announced in 2023, the untitled Project Baxter game would have been a new title set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe. The title was planned as a ‘live service' title, with on-going support post-launch to keep players engaged. Initially, the game had been planned to release in 2026, but it has now been unceremoniously scrapped.
As part of the announcement, Starbreeze stated that the decision was made in order to bolster resources for its flagship Payday franchise, which is currently the only series actively bringing in revenue, despite the lacklustre launch of Payday 3.
Some of the Project Baxter team will now be reassigned to work on Payday, while others will be let go. In total, around 44 developers are going to be let go as part of this shuffle. Starbreeze thinks that this cancellation, combined with a renewed push on Payday, will allow them to fix their financial situation over the coming year.
KitGuru Says: Starbreeze has had financial issues for years and their last ‘licensed' IP game, based on The Walking Dead, failed horribly, so I was surprised to hear they had spun up another license-based game. Now, all that work appears to have been for nothing.
