Ninja Theory Reveal Details of Cancelled Project Razer
Ninja Theory may have just announced an impressive-looking new game at Gamescom – Hellblade – but that hasn’t stopped them from releasing a whole slew of information today related to one of the projects that never successfully made it past the development stage and into full production.
That game is entitled Razer, and the game was described as follows:
“A mix of melee and gunplay. You were fighting an ever adapting enemy that required you to collaborate in squads and constantly adapt and change your attack patterns. This is a pre-vis of how we imagined the gameplay looking.”
Sadly the project was cancelled as it was being mooted around the same time that Destiny was, and many publishers didn’t want to take the gamble of going head-to-head with the Bungie behemoth – with another title that looked pretty similar in many ways.
For full details on the project and why it was cancelled, see the Ninja Theory presentation here, which was shown at GDC Europe. Also see some videos and images from the cancelled project below:

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
