Ben-DutkaIt's always a bad sign when you go months and months without hearing a peep.
Disney Interactive Studios has confirmed that Pirates of the Caribbean: Armada of the Damned has been canceled. The sandbox title was in development at Propaganda Studios and intended to release on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC, but a recent restructuring has caused the project to fall by the wayside. Disney's statement read:
"As a result of this decision, Disney Interactive Studios completed a restructuring of Propaganda Games, its Vancouver, BC internal studio, affecting one of the studio's two development teams."
Evidently, over 100 people lost their jobs during the process but at the same time, Disney has some reassuring words for those looking forward to Tron: Evolution : "The studio [Propaganda] is still in active production of Tron: Evolution , the video game, which will be released on December 7, 2010, with additional DLC support following the game's release." That's only 10 days before the movie, "Tron: Legacy," hits theaters nationwide on December 17.
But anyway, Pirates is no more. Too bad, too…we would've been interested to play a GTA-like seafaring game.
