The tacÂtiÂcal first-perÂson shootÂer from develÂopÂer Void InterÂacÂtive which entered EarÂly Access just days ago, will no longer be released by Team17. On TwitÂter, Void InterÂacÂtive said that the âmutuÂalÂly agreed uponâ deciÂsion to go their sepÂaÂrate ways is âthe right path for the futureâ of the game. Notably, it comes just days after a game develÂopÂer indiÂcatÂed that future stakes Up to date could include a levÂel set durÂing a school shootout.
CurÂrentÂly in Steam EarÂly Access, Ready or Not allows you to conÂtrol a SWAT memÂber who, alongÂside a team of AI comÂpanÂions or real playÂers, must âdefuse hosÂtile and conÂflictÂual sitÂuÂaÂtionsâ such as hostage takÂing, etc. ComÂing into EarÂly Access on DecemÂber 17, it already has over 8,500 reviews, mostÂly posÂiÂtive, and many see playÂers callÂing the game a worÂthy sucÂcesÂsor to the SWAT series. NonetheÂless, Void InterÂacÂtive and Team17 chose to go their sepÂaÂrate ways, now makÂing TacÂtiÂcal FPS an indeÂpenÂdent project.
Itâs a curiÂous develÂopÂment, espeÂcialÂly its timÂing. When asked on DecemÂber 19 in the in-game subÂredÂdit if Ready or Not should have a school shootÂing misÂsion in the camÂpaign, a develÂopÂer at Void InterÂacÂtive with the userÂname GrunÂtr said âyou betÂter believe that okay â, everyÂthing except conÂfirmÂing the planned exisÂtence of the misÂsion. Three days latÂer, the stuÂdio amiÂcaÂbly sepÂaÂratÂed from its pubÂlishÂer. Although this is not conÂfirmed, netiÂzens believe it is because of the planned incluÂsion of this tier.
âTeam17 DigÂiÂtal and VOID InterÂacÂtive have mutuÂalÂly agreed that Ready or Not will no longer be released by Team17 DigÂiÂtal,â said a spokesperÂson for Team17. âWe wish the VOID InterÂacÂtive team all the best for the future and conÂtinÂued develÂopÂment of the game. [We] have [no] furÂther comÂments on this at this time.
Itâs unclear exactÂly what the School ShootÂing MisÂsion will be, if it makes its entry into the game. The Ready or Not DisÂcord is explodÂing with disÂcusÂsions about the still hypoÂthetÂiÂcal levÂel, with some playÂers sugÂgestÂing it would be âcool.â to play, expressÂing their ideas on what that should involve and decidÂing what equipÂment they would take with them.
OthÂers denounce the posÂsiÂble incluÂsion of the misÂsion, callÂing those who ask for it âfuckÂing nutsâ while ponÂtifÂiÂcatÂing on why itâs probÂlemÂatÂic. The idea of ââReady or Not to venÂture into the realm of school shootÂings is not new.
