1666: Amsterdam Re-Revealed at Summer Game Fest 2026

The historical action-adventure game, *1666: Amsterdam*, was re-revealed at Summer Game Fest 2026. The game has a long development history, having initially begun as a THQ title in 2011 before the studio declared bankruptcy.

Patrice Désilets, a former creative director who worked on the first two *Assassin's Creed* games at Ubisoft and also at THQ, founded Panache Digital Games. Désilets subsequently resumed the development of *1666: Amsterdam*.

The demo for the game has drawn attention, with its generative AI assets becoming a significant talking point. However, some initial impressions have also suggested that the perceived quality of the game itself may be a concern.

Canceled Project Blackbird Could Have Replaced Destiny 2, Insider Says

Project Blackbird, an action-RPG MMO developed by The Elder Scrolls Online team at ZeniMax, was reportedly canceled in mid-2025 as part of Microsoft's layoffs. Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier suggested that the game had the potential to be a significant success and fill the void left by Destiny 2, whose development is winding down. Despite hearing positive feedback about Project Blackbird, its cancellation was attributed to financial considerations by former The Elder Scrolls Online director Matt Firor.
