"When asked if the Scalebound IP is owned by Microsoft or by developer Platinum, a Microsoft spokesperson simply said "we do not comment on the details of our business agreements with partners," and provided no additional comment when asked if Microsoft will seek to work with Platinum on a separate project in the future." |

Who knows why they won't acknowledge that though. Maybe they're currently in talks to sell the IP to someone so development can continue.
