Now, Xbox Game Studio Head, Matt Booty decided to shed light; giving fans an update as to where Everwild stands at this point in time. In the podcast, sharing his views and coming to Rare’s rescue, Matt said” What is Rare known for? They’re known for creating new IP and creating worlds. I’ll say when you look at it from the outside, when you hear words like ‘reset’ and maybe ‘restructure,’ those are probably a little more definite and a little more extreme than what really happens as a game comes to life.”.

The title was noticeably missing from Xbox, and Bethesda Games Showcase at E3 this year. Due to this, many questioned why there haven’t been any new trailers from the devs. Explaining the delay and talking of an anecdote from his early days, Booty said, “Every day you’re making hundreds of small decisions and at the end of however long you work on the game, they all add up. I think that’s where the Everwild team is right now. They’re just trying to make sure that they’ve got something special.”.
