"FY23 revenue and profit are higher than the expectations due to "World of Assassination" (WOA) and Backlog performing better than expectation. Hitman 3 on Microsoft game pass back in FY22 has also brought in considerable revenue in FY23 including the performance bonus."

"The latter two (James Bond and Project Fantasy) are done in collaboration with external partners with both internal and external publishing and financing."

"For a prolonged time including through the last quarter of FY23 the management has been in negotiations with a partner for one of the development projects. There are only a few and yet important points to be fully negotiated with the partner.... There is a strong belief that the contract will finalized and signed in the near future"

This would make sense as to why Xbox didn't attach their name to Project Fantasy despite IO Interactive technically announcing it, if the negotiations are not yet done in regards to the publishing deal, of course the above could be about James Bond though so don't take it as confirmation but it may hint that Xbox may still be publishing Project Fantasy as Jez originally leaked.

Could also be that Xbox dropped publishing so IO Interactive is negotiating with others now.
