Mac Walters' Studio Worlds Untold Halts Operations in Search of New Funding
In a surprising turn of events, Worlds Untold, a studio founded by BioWare alum Mac Walters, has temporarily ceased operations as it seeks a new funding partner. This news comes on the heels of another BioWare veteran's studio, Humanoid Origin, shutting down its operations. Walters expressed his gratitude for the time spent at the studio and described the decision as 'heartbreaking.' Despite the setback, he remains optimistic about the future, stating, 'This isn't goodbye - there's more to come.' The studio, which had been backed by NetEase, is currently exploring new opportunities for its team members. With a team of 11-50 people, the pause in operations is expected to have a significant impact. Walters reflected on the journey, saying, 'It's hard to find the right words for this, but I wanted to share that we've made the very difficult decision to pause operations at Worlds Untold while we search for a new partner to help bring our vision to life.' As the studio navigates this challenging time, fans can take comfort in Walters' assurance that the story of Worlds Untold is far from over.
