An Xbox exclusive might have encountered an obstacle on the way. The game that is facing all the trouble goes by the name of Everwild, and it has been reported that the game is having issues with respect to its development.

Everwild is another project from the acclaimed studio, Rare. It was the same studio behind the recently released title, Sea of Thieves. The game was announced 2 years back in 2019. However, Rare refrained from disclosing anything about the game. 

Moreover, there were multiple changes in the company. This gradually made the gaming world conclude that there might be issues with the upcoming title.

All of such concerns of the fans seem to be true. The title is in huge disarray at this very moment if all the news reported are believed to be correct. 

What are the Everwild development issues? 

All of the news regarding the development trouble came to the surface when a renowned journalist shared what he knew about the title. The journalist, Jeff Grubb reported that Rare might have a tough time with Everwild. The reason is simple: Rare is still unsure of what the game should be.

This led Grubb to say, “They [Rare] try to talk diplomatically about it when they’re in public and they’re like, ‘Oh, people hear things about a creative director leaving and the thing’s getting rebooted and that’s overstated.’ It’s not that overstated. They’ve rebooted that thing and they don’t know exactly the state of it. In terms of what they expect it to be, they are still figuring that out. And it’s a mess.”
