Hasbro is cancelling a planned Dungeons & Dragons action game developed by independent studio Giant Skull, according to multiple reports. The project was announced last June as a partnership with Hasbro’s Wizards of the Coast, and it is described as being helmed by Stig Asmussen, who previously directed Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Bloomberg reports that the game is being cancelled, referencing the studio’s earlier deal with Wizards of the Coast. PC Gamer similarly states that Giant Skull and Asmussen are no longer making the Dungeons & Dragons game. Rock Paper Shotgun adds that the publishing arrangement is pulled by Hasbro, and that the decision appears to have occurred earlier in the year. With the Hasbro publishing deal ended, Giant Skull is described as seeking a new publishing partner for the project’s next steps. Across the outlets, the central points are that Hasbro withdraws support for the Dungeons & Dragons action game and that Giant Skull, led by Asmussen, is left hunting for an alternative publishing deal.
