The Activision-Vivendi merger strikes again! Scarface 2, in development under Vivendi’s Sierra label, while never announced officially, was confirmed by Vivendi top brass to be churning along. Until recently, that is.
It’s being reported that Scarface 2 didn’t make Activision-Blizzard’s list of ‘games to make’ after their priorities were shuffled around during the merger. Scarface 2 joins a growing list of games left off of Activision’s ‘cool’ list, including the new 50 Cent game, Ghostbusters, the Bourne series and Double Fine’s Brütal Legend.
While the original game, Scarface: The World is Yours, sold around 3 million copies worldwide, it was a bit of a slow burn sales-wise, as initial reviews made it out to be slightly above average, with room for improvement on a solid game and license. A sequel was sure to patch up the inconsistencies and further take advantage of the Scarface universe. Yet another casualty of Activision-Blizzard.
