Former Mass Effect director Casey Hudson's studio, Humanoid Origin, has announced its closure before revealing their sci-fi narrative adventure game due to a funding shortfall.
Humanoid Origin was developing a multi-platform AAA game set in an all-new science-fiction universe, focusing on character-driven narrative.
The studio had only revealed a few pieces of concept art for the game and was using Unreal Engine 5.
This closure adds to the increasing number of studio closures and layoffs in the gaming industry this year, with over 14,000 job losses reported so far.
