One of the developers posted a Sizzle reel of what the new TimeSplitters would have looked like if Embracer didn't cancel the game.

It's a Fortnite clone with an ingame shop, maybe it's for the best that this game didn't taint the series's reputation!

According to an interview that started circulating it was going to be a Fortnite clone, but they took a 180 in early 2023 and it became a TS2 remake. If you look at that Story Mode demo it does certainly seem like that was the direction they were ultimately heading for since it looks an awful lot like a reworked Siberian Dam level.

Was two years away from release so who knows, it could have been really good. Doom 2016 was COD game originally.

Real damn shame they didn't get to finish the TS2 remaster for release that was hidden in Homefront 2: a Quest for Stupidity

Bru I would day 1 buy a TS2 remake. They should have just gone with that from the start and released it.

Lying to your investors sounds like a good way to get your project cancelled.

I know ppl are hating this, but if you step back remember what Timesplitters was like, it fits perfectly with Fortnites design.

  • Loads of wacky skins
  • creative multi-theme maps
  • cartooney stylized art
  • wide gambit of weapons from realistic to fantasy
The only difference was that it was FPS and it existed at a time before DLC or Micro-transactions.

The gameplay is the problem, not the look.

Other than parts of the map being more open, I didn't really see anything different. Timesplitters MP gameplay wasn't anything unique. I guess it did have dual wielding, but every shooter had that after Halo.

While it was obviously very early in development (they just ported Future Perfect to PS3), this looked to have tons of potential. What could have been...

It's more that they Frankenstein'd Future Perfect to run a demo to try and get a publisher for it. But alas, BFIII getting canceled late in development killed the studio (they found files for the PS3 version on the dev kit.)

People are data mining it though and it's not just any old Future Perfect copy either, it actually contains cut content such as levels.

OOOOOOF, looking at that footage, not hard to see why this was cancelled. Looks like absolute garbage and a clear Fortnite clone. Who greenlit this?
