Project Dagger, a "new action-adventure IP" that had been in development at People Can Fly since 2020, has been officially cancelled. The studio said in a report released earlier this month that the decision to halt development was made following an "unsatisfactory" evaluation of the current state of the game.
Trouble with Project Dagger first came to light in 2022, when Take-Two Interactive terminated its publishing deal for the game and did not exercise its option to buy out the rights to the project. "We strongly believe in Project Dagger’s potential and are now committed to continue its development within our self-publishing pipeline," the studio said at the time. It acknowledged that the change would place added costs on the studio, but added that "self-publishing is part of our strategy," although it remained open to working with a different publisher.
