The developers of Breakaway made the announcement of its cancellation on Reddit. This comes after a promised overhaul of the game that was going to focus more on the battling and fantasy elements, rather than the competitive sports angle.
We have seen a lot of footage of Breakaway in the past, with the game seemingly near to completion. At a glance, Breakaway could charitably be referred to as an attempt to combine the intriguing character designs of Overwatch with the fantasy soccer elements of Rocket League. Breakaway involved two teams of characters who were trying to move a magical relic into the opposing team’s goal, in order to score points. The characters all seemed to be based on real-life historical and mythological figures.
