Even I think that's too much =p.

Don't know if this was posted here. But at least from this source, the info they previously got about Starfield going to PS5 turned out to be innacurate.

They did it to themselves with poor release planning, if you look at their 1st party quite alot of them released games from 2020 launch window-2022. That put them in a position of having a largely barren 2023 and 2024. Their release schedule should start to pick up somewhat in 2025 and then be very strong in 2026. These are their 1st party studios that could possibly have a game ready for release some time in 2024-2026:

Matter was supposedly cancelled in December 2020.

I hadn't heard that, but it makes sense, Bungie working on 3 games at once plus ongoing Destiny 2 expansions felt like a bit much considering their size. As of August 2023 they had an incubation project going that was a team based action game in a new sci-fi universe, so that new IP + Marathon + Matter + Destiny 2 expansions seemed a bit much to me.

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:
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.

It could work if Loro and Halo are in pre-production, Exodus in early production and Suerte in late production.

We'll have to see, but going back and rereading Jez's January 2022 article he said that his sources told him Suerte was aiming for a 2023 reveal and a 2024 release, and it's now early 2024 and the game hasn't been announced yet, nor has there been a single leak about it since that Jez article 2 years ago. Considering that, and the fact that Certain Affinity would be stretched pretty thin working on 4 games at once with 215+ devs, I do have to wonder if Suerte got quietly cancelled at some point after Jez's January 2022 article.

They should just come out and do the "I'm not leaving" speech from The Wolf of Wall Street, and that should be it.
