This is Project Blackbird. An MMORPG by Zenimax, the developers behind Elder Scrolls Online This was in development for years up until Microsoft cancelled it in 2025, resulting in many of its developers including the founder of Zenimax to step down.

Looks generic AF. Even worse that it’s an MMO not a single player game.

Zenimax Online is an online games developer tho

you're telling me I could've had an MMORPG scifi shooter to try out god damn it Generic or not it at least has aliens, man. Universe looks more interesting to learn about than fuckin Starfield was

can't say I feel bad about it. this doesn't look interesting or intriguing at all.

A cyberpunk-y sci-fi MMO would’ve been sweet. We don’t really have any of those other than Anarchy Online

Don't think so, all the characters are assets from Epic's Paragon (and now Predecessor, etc.).

Microsoft spent billions buying studios just to cancel games, lay off devs, drop broken Windows updates, and fumble promising projects. Must be nice having ‘throw it in the ocean’ money.😅

This looks very bland and generic if we're being real. They made the right move canning this one.

Good. Fucking idiots should've done an "A Realm Reborn" for ESO but noooo, you had to work on some generic ass looking cyberpunk mmo.

This literally looks like assets from the Prey 2 trailer from 2011... Not that that's a bad thing, but it doesn't look like anything we haven't seen be canceled by Bethesda already.

Common Microsoft L

Good thing they canceled it, looks like ass

I'm not an MMO person but this looks aesthetically pleasing.

Looks like Unreal Engine 5 slop

Man i would've spent thousands of hours into this

This looks mid

this is fake

I new the project got canned but I didn’t know we ever got concept footage

Looks just like The Ascent

ANARCHY ONLINE 2.0

If thats all they had and had been working on it for over 5yrs already no wonder Microsoft closed it down

I like the theme!

Pity it gives me Blade Runner and SWOTR vibes. Could have been something decent. We will never know. Cause MICROSLOP!

Looks like shit, they made a good decision cancel jt

Looks generic af Good call canceling it

Ngl this is almost 1:1 to Star Citizen's Area 18

I mean it would have been cool to see what it could have been but this isn't giving a good impression

But it shows no gameplay

Pisses me off ESO had a scale back in content because at the same time a lot of the content that came out in the last few years when devs were being moved on was actually good/looked good it just slacked other stuff to accompany it

Getting Prey 2 Canceled Vibes

Probably say new world closing doors and thought they did the right thing too.

“MMORPG”

I suspect that all the 'statues' are a hint at the state of the game at that time.

Looks like those "i made this in unreal 5" videos you see on youtube

we don't hate Microsoft enough...
