Hellblade was announced in 2019.Two games that were acquired in the Bethesda acquisition were delayed.
Its almost going to be 5 years for shyt like Hellblade 2 since the Ninja Theory purchase was announced back in 2018.
MS has always been trash at managing studios and producing games since the 360 era.
Seems like a very reasonable development cycle if you aren’t looking for something to hate on
