Ex-Halo and Destiny veteran’s new studio “halting work” on debut game

Even if you’ve got some early financial backing, decades of industry experience at the top, and some super talented devs creating your new game, there’s no guarantee in the current climate that you’re going to succeed. It’s tough right now.
