LucasArts and Kuju splitsville post-Traxion
Not only is Traxion out of LucasArts‘ lineup – so is Kuju Entertainment. Only a couple of days after announcing that LucasArts, in mutual consent with Kuju, would no longer publish Traxion, Kuju has announced that they have severed their publishing agreement with LucasArts as well.
Kuju Brighton studio head Ed Daly confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that Kuju has formally split from LucasArts “in respect of the Traxion game.” Hard to interpret from this sentence whether this means that Kuju’s looking for a new publisher for Traxion. On the other hand, Daly went on to mention that they are “confident” that they can put the technology developed for Traxion to good use “in future releases.” Again, we can’t interpret this to mean that Traxion is still looking for a publisher, but this may mean a similar Kuju title, or a game using some elements from Traxion, in the future.
