Left field option: partner with Microsoft and give it to Obsidian with support from Arkane.
I think both halves of Arkane are currently booked out, between Deathloop (and its inevitable DLC) over in Lyon and an unannounced fantasy game over in Austin.

Obsidian's just wrapping up the Outer Worlds DLC, but they're also juggling Grounded's Early Access run and a first-person fantasy RPG they teased last year called Avowed. I'm not sure how much more bandwidth they have left to spare, even discounting any unannounced stuff they have in the cards.

Yeah, from the sounds of things they have a new studio working on the game, they're just still going through the legal formalities and don't want to announce anything until the ink's dried.

The blog post also says that they're offering refunds to all digital pre-orders and actively refunding every single physical pre-order. Which doesn't seem like an amazing sign.

The FAQ also confirms that they'll be announcing the studio that's making the game in September, which... sigh...
