The Canadian game development studio, Worlds Untold, has revealed that it is temporarily halting its operations.
In a recent LinkedIn update, the studio shared that it is currently on the lookout for a new partnership. Founded in November 2023 and led by Mac Walters, a veteran of BioWare, Worlds Untold originally had the backing of Chinese gaming giant, NetEase. We’ve reached out to NetEase for details about the current status of their collaboration.
“This wasn’t a decision we took lightly,” the team expressed in their LinkedIn post, “It’s been a profoundly personal journey, and we take immense pride in what we have accomplished together.”
For the time being, the talented team members are seeking new opportunities. If you’re on the hunt for skilled and passionate professionals, feel free to connect with us, as we’d be thrilled to introduce you to some of the most exceptional people we’ve had the pleasure to work with.
This is a tough moment for everyone involved, yet there’s deep gratitude for the support from partners, friends, and family, and for the experiences we’ve shared at Worlds Untold. Although we are pausing for now, this isn’t a farewell. There’s more to come in the future, and we eagerly await the right moment to share the next part of our journey with all of you.
