Good to hear. Arcane has made some stellar titles over the years. It would be incredibly reactionary to shutter the studio for Redfall.

I think if I were at Arkane Austin, I’d be brushing up my resume.
From what I heard during development a load of the developers left because they joined Arkane to make games like Prey, Dishonored etc. Not multiplayer games.
How’s the team compared to say Prey? Is majority of the staff still the same or have they slowly scattered elsewhere?

lot of attrition at Arkane Austin per this thread
Sounds like they lost ~70% during redfall’s development
Always good to see the listings yourself, but it’s how you’d expect.
Wasn’t it recently reported that Microsoft and Bethesda had no real love or interest in the game, and they sort of just left them to it?
Yeah Redfall supposedly was a Zenimax project, they wanted more GaaS products to boost their value before Microsoft’s purchase.
“Currently safe” sounds kind of ominous
