The developer has also maintained that while it may have scrapped plans of developing and releasing the single player and cooperative story this year, there is still a possibility for it to see the light of the day. “At this moment it’s more important to us that we deliver a full multiplayer and co-op experience that improves on ‘Insurgency ’ one that is true to our style and what we feel we do best,” Tsarouhas wrote.
The good thing about this cancellation is New Home will have more time to work on the full multiplayer and co-op experience of the game. “The story was a very exciting and new opportunity for us as a team, but we felt we had to make a choice,” the game designer added.
Tsarouhas explained that they are canceling the campaign due to “high production requirements.” In addition, they aspire to focus on delivering what the game’s fans are asking for this year. In a new update posted on publisher Focus Home Interactive’s website, lead game designer Michael Tsarouhas announced that the team has canceled the planned release of the single player and cooperative story for “Insurgency: Sandstorm” as part of their decision to shift the game’s direction this year. Developer New Home Interactive has just revealed that it has scrapped its plans of releasing the campaign. It’s a sad day for fans of “Insurgency: Sandstorm” who were anticipating the release of the previously announced single player and co-op campaign for the game.
