After its cancellation last July, the reboot of Perfect Dark could have been saved by Take-Two Interactive. Despite the publisher’s interest in the project, no agreement could be reached with Microsoft and the game was shelved.
However, all may not be lost. Journalist Jason Schreier has announced that former The Initiative head Darrell Gallagher and Perfect Dark director Brian Horton have taken charge of a new studio within 2K Games. Remember that the publisher is a subsidiary of Take-Two.
For now, we don’t know what the two men and their team are working on. While it’s unlikely to be Perfect Dark, a project inspired by the license could be in the works.
It’s exciting to see 2K Games bringing in talented people from the Perfect Dark team for a new studio. This could lead to some interesting developments in the gaming world. Looking forward to seeing what they create!
