"The chances of the Perfect Dark reboot rising from last summer's cancellation are slim-to-none. But two of the primary developers behind it, studio head Darrell Gallagher and director Brian Horton, have found a new home at Take-Two Interactive. Bloomberg's Jason Schreier broke the story about Gallagher and Horton on Bluesky. According to Schreier, the duo will start their own studio under the Take-Two umbrella. However, there are currently no details about any games that they're working on."
"Schreier previously reported that Take-Two came close to reviving the Perfect Dark reboot. However, the deal reportedly fell apart over which company would own the rights for the franchise. Regardless, it seems that both Gallagher and Horton made an impression on Take-Two that led to them being hired. Last summer, Gallagher shared his eulogy for the canceled Perfect Black reboot, and added that he "couldn't be prouder of the talented and passionate team" that he put together."
Two primary developers of the canceled Perfect Dark reboot, studio head Darrell Gallagher and director Brian Horton, have joined Take-Two Interactive to start their own studio under its umbrella. There are currently no details about any games the new studio is working on. Take-Two reportedly nearly revived the Perfect Dark reboot, but negotiations collapsed over franchise-ownership rights. Gallagher and Horton apparently impressed Take-Two enough to be hired despite the cancellation. Gallagher previously posted a eulogy for the canceled Perfect Black reboot and praised his former team. It is unclear whether other displaced Perfect Dark employees will join the new studio. Take-Two also owns Rockstar Games, which faces allegations of union busting after layoffs tied to proprietary leaks.
