Microsoft has granted Arkane Studios additional time to locate an investor or buyer to assist in completing the development of Marvel's Blade. The studio currently faces potential closure, and this extension is intended to facilitate the search for a partner capable of supporting the project.
Negotiations regarding the studio's future were initially expected to conclude by November 13. According to reports from PC Gamer, Microsoft has extended this consultation period by one month, setting a new deadline of December 13.
A company representative confirmed the extension, stating that the additional time allows for the exploration of various options, including finding a partner to support the remaining development work. The firm remains committed to keeping the Works Council informed throughout this defined process.
Marvel's Blade, an action title featuring the Marvel vampire hunter in Paris, was announced in 2023. The project remains in development by Arkane Lyon, though reports suggest it has faced budget overruns. Arkane is among several studios affected by recent Xbox layoffs as Microsoft continues to restructure its business operations.
