Project T, Dead by Daylight’s PvE Co-op Shooter Spinoff, Has Been Cancelled
The Dead by Daylight universe recently dipped its toes in the single-player waters with the Supermassive-developed The Casting of Frank Stone, but it seems like its plans to have another multiplayer outing have ended prematurely.
In May last year, developer Behaviour Interactive announced that it Midwinter Entertainment – a studio that it had previously acquired – was working on a new PvE co-op shooter spinoff set in the Dead by Daylight universe, before announcing the game as Project T earlier this year and kicking off an insiders playtest program.
Mere months later, however, the developer has announced that based on the feedback it received from said playtests and “a thorough internal risk assessment from a commercial and product perspective”, it has decided to cancel the project.
“When we conceptualized Project T, we wanted to have players involved in it as early as possible, which led to the creation of the Insiders Program,” the developer wrote in an announcement published on Twitter. “This approach has allowed us to get very early validation on the project’s core design and gameplay, which is something that often comes much further into the production of a game. Following the playtest in July, we ran a thorough internal risk assessment from a product and commercial perspective. While a number of players expressed appreciation for what they played, unfortuantely, the outcome of this deep analysis yielded unsatisfactory overall results.
“It’s with a heavy heart that we announce that Project T has been cancelled. We want to thank you for your support throughout this journey.”
