Jeff Grubb is now saying that The Coalition has cancelled their "smaller non Gears project" which was in the works to get them up to speed on Unreal Engine 5 before moving onto Gears 6. He says The Matrix demo wasn't that smaller non Gears project but they feel like they're up to speed on UE5 now because they worked on that so they have cancelled that smaller project, the studio has now fully moved onto Gears 6.
Bit disappointing but from the sounds of it, it would have been a very small project if its only intention was to get them up to speed with Unreal Engine 5 and The Matrix demo already did that, and honestly, if it was entirely only to get them up to speed with UE5, it would have likely been a one off thing with no intention of making it into a franchise, I think something along the lines of Project Mara.
The downsides of leaking stuff not yet announced, it was basically announced and cancelled by Grubb, Lmfao.
