EA has made the decision to cancel a Black Panther game under development at Cliffhanger Games and close the studio entirely. This move is part of the company's strategy to concentrate on significant growth opportunities, according to an email from EA Entertainment president Laura Miele. The layoffs come shortly after a previous round of cuts affecting around 300 staff. Miele acknowledged the difficulties in making such decisions but expressed a commitment to support affected employees. The game, initially announced in 2023, was touted as a third-person, single-player experience centered around Black Panther, but little progress had been showcased since then.
These decisions are hard. They affect people we've worked with, learned from, and shared real moments with. We're doing everything we can to support them.
The Black Panther game was announced in 2023, described as a third-person adventure where players would embody Wakanda's protector, but details remained sparse thereafter.
