I'm starting to become skeptical about Project Suerte with XGS still being in development. Certain Affinity is not that big, 215+ employees according to their website and over the last few years they have worked on:

  • Halo Tatanka Battle Royale- Rumored to be dead now, but their UE5 work on Tatanka seems to have become the foundation for the next-mainline Halo game that 343 is currently making, with Certain Affinity confirmed to still be assisting on it
  • Last Expedition- The PvPvE shooter that released in early access on PC in August
  • Project Loro- An original FPS developed by Certain Affinity, confirmed to have begun development in December 2022
  • Transformers Reactivate- Began development at Certain Affinity, before being passed to Splash Damage
  • Project Suerte- Leaked by Jez and Grubb independently from one another as an original IP Monster Hunter-like action game in January 2022, aiming for release in late 2023 or 2024 at the time of the report
  • Exodus- Co-development with Archetype Entertainment

Though they are no longer working on Last Expedition or Transformers, I just don't see how they have the staff to be working on Project Loro, Halo UE5, Project Suerte, and Exodus all at once, with 215+ employees. Suerte and Loro would both need large teams of probably at least 70 devs being original IP of at least AA scale. They probably have at least 50 on Halo UE5 assistance meanwhile since 343 is so understaffed right now in the wake of the firings. Then they have this team assisting on Exodus as well.
