10 Hyped Video Games In Development (That Will Never Be Released)

Techland

Hellraid is an allegedly-upcoming game developed by Dead Island developers Techland and hopefully scheduled for release sometime before a massive chunk of space rock smashes into the planet's surface and destroys all life on earth. A first person medieval combat experience, many have liked the gameplay seen in the game's few trailers to Bethesda's uber-famous The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim.

Unfortunately, this unique take on this nearly oversaturated setting is very quickly turning to vaporware: we haven't seen hide nor tail of this title since 2014, and Techland is at best cagey about the subject. In 2016 they assured consumers that the game was still forthcoming, but we've heard nothing but the sound of distant crickets since then.

Techland is, in the minds of some, up there with Randy Pitchford, Sean Murray, or Peter Molyneux in terms of their inability to deliver on promises, and they may want to consider delaying further project reveals until completion ETAs and release dates can be set in stone. While the titles they have delivered so far have been mostly well-received, the studio can, at best, be described as a bit overly-ambitious.
