Gears of War: Exile Officially Cancelled by Epic Games

A few months back, it was discovered that Epic Games was working on an unannounced title called Gears of War: Exile.  No official details ever saw the light of day, but it was heavily rumored that the game was a on-rails Gears-style Kinect game.

While the title was never officially announced, Cliff Bleszinski of Epic Games has confirmed that the game is no longer in works.  Cliff spoke to Gamespot and stated that, “”Let’s just bury the hatchet now,” he said. “Gears of War: Exile was an unannounced game that I can’t give any details about that has since been cancelled.”

With no real gameplay or details ever surfacing, fans can’t help but hope for footage to eventually surface.  We wouldn’t expect to see anything in the very near future, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see video footage leak out before the end of the year.
