The Coalition has reportedly canceled two games–one a smaller non-Gears of War game, and a second mystery game. The studio’s next game will reportedly be Gears 6.
According to Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, the Matrix demo that The Coalition worked on with Epic Games is not the smaller project. “That was a separate thing. But it does seem like they feel like, ‘well, we are up to speed because we worked on that,’ and so they have canceled that smaller project as well as another project,” Grubb explains.
He continues, “This was all reflected in the layoffs that happened at Microsoft which did hit The Coalition a little bit. But the studio is now going to move on fully to Gears 6.” Microsoft laid off 10,000 people last month, impacting 343 Industries, Bethesda, The Coalition, and other Xbox teams.
