Days Gone Director Shows Support After Bend Studio’s Latest Project Gets Shelved
Former director of Days Gone extends solidarity to his old team following project termination.
John Garvin, the director behind the post-apocalyptic action game Days Gone, has expressed his support for the development team at Bend Studio following the cancellation of their latest project. The studio’s unannounced live service game was reportedly terminated during development.
The news comes amid ongoing changes in the gaming industry’s approach to live service titles, with several major studios reconsidering their strategies in this space. Garvin’s public show of support highlights the challenging nature of game development and the impact such decisions have on development teams.
Bend Studio, known for their work on Days Gone and the Syphon Filter series, has yet to officially announce their next project. The Oregon-based developer continues to operate as part of PlayStation Studios, though their future direction remains unclear following this recent cancellation.
