- Obsidian Entertainment has canceled a Declared suite and is reportedly developing a new To fall game
- The game is led by Fallout: New Vegas Joshua Sawyer, lead designer and project director
- This is part of Microsoft’s major Xbox “reset.”
Obsidian Entertainment is reportedly working on a new To fall game after abandoning plans for a Declared following amid Xbox’s restructuring strategy.
This is what Bloomberg reveals, which reports that the Declared The sequel and other unannounced projects were the studio’s priority, but they will now focus on a new To fall game led by Fallout: New Vegas Joshua Sawyer, lead designer and project director, in collaboration with Bethesda.
Sawyer was working on another role-playing game (RPG) similar to To fallbut we don’t know which one.
While Attorney 2 was canceled, a small team will continue working on the game in case the project is restarted in the future; for now, To fall is the new priority.
The report is part of Microsoft’s major Xbox “reset,” which recently resulted in thousands of layoffs, including 1,600 immediate removals. It is said that Attorney 2 was expected to be announced sometime next year, but Xbox CEO Asha Sharma didn’t see it fitting into the company’s new strategy.
Bloomberg said the layoffs affected a quarter of Obsidian, with GameFile reporting that a WARN notice in California said it involved 52 workers in total, including 43 in Obsidian’s California offices and nine remote workers in the state.
Obsidian, acquired by Microsoft in 2018, released three games in 2025, including Declared, The Outer Worlds 2And Grounded 2. Bloomberg confirmed that the studio will continue to develop content for the latter two titles.
