Amy Hennig's Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra, a Captain America and Black Panther game, is reportedly close to completion but has been significantly cut in content and length. Kotaku reported that the game is "close to done" after rumours of a cancellation spread online, and Bloomberg's Jason Schreier said Skydancer leadership told staff via Slack that the game was not cancelled and they should continue business as usual. Kotaku reported that development was difficult, that the game went well over budget, and that it was scaled back from its original vision. The game was announced in 2024, has been delayed several times, and originally began as a Netflix game before being expanded for consoles and PC. Kotaku reported that the game is "light on gameplay," with most action mapped to one button. IGN said no release date has been announced, and that the game may resemble a Quantic Dream style experience with some combat, which IGN called speculative. It is Hennig's first proper game as director since Uncharted 3 in 2011. IGN noted she was reportedly ousted from Naughty Dog in the early 2010s and later worked at EA, where a Star Wars project with Visceral Games was scrapped when the studio closed. IGN wrote that fans hoping for something like Marvel's Spider-Man may be disappointed.
