Xbox should definitely be keeping a very close eye on Mundfish, at the very least they are incredibly impressive on a technical level; based on the graphics I saw in their recent PC Ultra settings trailer from CES, I fully expect this game to make digital foundry's top 10 graphics list at the end of 2023, and they did it with a AA team size and budget, not AAA.
If this game is a success in reviews, sales, and gamepass downloads, Xbox should definitely be trying to lock them down with a 2nd party exclusivity deal on their next game, until this whole ABK mess is wrapped up and Xbox can acquire again.
Hell, these guys would be perfect for working on a Fallout spinoff, Atomic Heart is basically Fallout before the bombs dropped, both are action RPG-shooter hybrids set in alternate history timelines where the level of technology suddenly skyrocketed in the mid 1900's. Mundfish could maybe develop a Fallout spinoff set in Russia, which would be a unique perspective on the Fallout universe, and would help to sustain Fallout fans during the long wait for Fallout 5 (which is looking to be a 2030-2032 release most likely). Alongside a new Fallout spinoff from Obsidian, Fallout fans could potentially get 2 different Fallout spinoffs before Fallout 5.
