The Collective pulled from next-gen Dirty Harry game
Perhaps we won’t be seeing it soon, but according to newly installed WBIE senior vice president Samantha Ryan, a next-gen Dirty Harry game will be released. Eventually.
The game has currently been put on indefinite hold following staff reorganizations at Foundation 9. The Collective, a division of Foundation 9 and the studio who was handling the videogame adaptation of the 1970 film, was pulled off the project. Approximately 30 Collective staffers were handed their pink slips.
A Foundation 9 spokesperson declined to comment on Dirty Harry’s status, but even though things are looking grim for old Mr. Callahan, there’s still some light at the end of the tunnel.
“We are moving forward with the Dirty Harry next generation videogames and will be changing our development plans in keeping with the best interest of the franchise legacy,” said Ryan in a statement. “WBIE is dedicated to creating a game that will bring Clint Eastwood’s legendary Detective Harry Callahan character to the interactive space with a new story and great gameplay.”
