Scalebound, the collaborative project between Platinum Games and Microsoft, has just been cancelled. The game was initially announced in 2014, and was supposed to release in Q4 2016. The game had recently been delayed to "2017", but it seems Microsoft decided to can the project. Apparently, work had ceased on the game sometime near the end of 2016. Platinum Games hasn't said anything on the matter at the time of writing.

After careful deliberation, Microsoft Studios has come to the decision to end production for Scalebound. We’re working hard to deliver an amazing lineup of games to our fans this year, including Halo Wars 2, Crackdown 3, State of Decay 2, Sea of Thieves and other great experiences

UPDATE: It looks like Microsoft is specifically targeting YouTube videos that contain Scalebound gameplay footage and removing them.
