Development of Ubusuna Comes to an Abrupt Halt
M2 has decided to halt all development of Ubusuna, a promising shoot-’em-up initially revealed in 2014. The president of M2 expressed regret over the cancellation, stating that the project had been in development since its unveiling and that it was a difficult decision to halt it.
Due to recent leadership changes, attempts to continue Ubusuna without key personnel were found to be unfeasible. The vision for the project was closely tied to this leadership, making it challenging to move forward.
Despite this setback, there are hopes for pursuing Ubusuna in a different capacity outside of M2. There is a shared wish for an opportunity to realize the game’s potential in the future.
Additionally, the Ubusuna SOUNDTRACK-EP will no longer be available on their YouTube channel, disappointing fans who enjoyed the music.
The communication from M2 acknowledged the disappointment felt by fans and contributors and asked for understanding regarding the situation.
