Tributes for the Dis🥃honored series and Arkane Au🌸stin are pouring in from game developers in the wake of the studio's closure.

Following Microsoft's shocking decision to close both Arkane Austin and Tang😼o Gameworks yesterday, a report claimed that Arkane Austin had been pitchi🎐ng a new Dishonored game before it was closed. Plenty of social media users are mourning what could have been, as well as speaking out in frustration as the same report claimed Tango had pitched Hi-Fi Rush 2 to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft before its closure.

Game developers, however, are speaking out in tribute for the Dishonored series at large. Just below, you can see a litany of tweets from game developers around the world, with some going so far as to write that the Dishonored games changed their "world view on game design," and was a source of inspirat🍰ion and admiration for other developers. 

There's also a lot of frustration that Microsoft's press release confirming Arkane Austin's closure failed to mention the Dishonored games. The tweet below, f𝄹or example, criticizes Microsoft for omitting one of the more influential game series of the past generation and focusing instead on the developer's more recent efforts with Redfall.

Unfortunately, following the studio's closure, there has been some misunderstanding about Arkane Austin's role in the Dishonored series. Many argue that it was purely Arkane Lyon who made the series, but that isn't true—the first Dishonored was a joint project between Arkane Austin and Lyon. Austin𝓀 led the production, while Lyon was in charge of the artistic direction.

After a year of Xbox execs celebrating Hi-Fi Rush as a "break out hit" and saying "we don't quit" on games like Redfall, everyone wants to know what changed.
