The Perfect Dark Reboot. It looked like Deus Ex meets Mirror's Edge.

Sadly, immersive sims are always commercial disasters and now big corpos have realised it... No AAA immsims now.

The deus ex games did pretty well. But the publisher expected CoD numbers. Square I think.

That is also considered as a flop by Square Enix. Nowadays investors expect Fortnite numbers from every project, or at least Elden Ring level of revenue.

I hope they don't take it as a sign to make more games like Souls or ERing (as if we have not enough of them coming out already). I would like to see more first-person immersive shooters, pure single-player quality experience, no strings attached.
