Haze PC and Xbox 360 cancelled

Haze is now a permanent PlayStation 3 exclusive.

In May 2007, Ubisoft had announced that the title would lead on PS3 in 2007, followed by an Xbox 360 and PC release in 2008.

However, recent rumors suggested that the 360 version had been dropped. In fact, both the 360 version and PC versions have been officially cancelled. Ubisoft said that no other versions are in development, and only the PS3 version is being worked on.

The Free Radical site, the Official Haze site and Ubisoft's corporate site all now only list the PS3 version.

The title is set for release on PS3 in November 2007.

Haze is set in the year 2048 in a world where military operations are dominated by multiple Governments and Private Military Corporations, and you play a newly enlisted soldier seeking fulfillment and excitement by fighting for a good cause.

    Haze would never have beaten Halo 3 on the 360 anyway in sales. I like that it's now a console-war game. ...bigger levels, six axis, PSN... neat!

    Now if only we could get a full explanation of why it couldnt be ported.  i imagine it would go something like this... ' The lack of disc space and system horsepower has disalloud us to bring this game to the 360'.  I dont see why they couldnt port it to PC, but Im not complaining, one more exclusive to add to the list.

    I think jockamo is on the right track...crapxbox 3-sh!tty fluff girls are blinded by Smalo 3, and it wouldn't be wise for Free radical to go up against them in trying to share the FPS joy on that system. Making it seem like a rival game (Halo killer you can say) exclusively for the PS3 will do it more good from a financial stand point...imo

    Sweet, nice to see a new exclusive. To the guy who asked why the PC isn't getting it, my guess would be the driver support. The nice thing about developing for a console is the fact that the hardware is all the same. With PC games, they have to develope the game to run at multiple levels of detail in one game.

    Whoa...I didnt see that coming. I know that some people will celebrate, but I am a little sad for Xbox owners. It looks like they will miss out on what is shaping up to be a great game.

    YES!  I had noticed that for awhile now I didn't see anything about a PC or 360 version on their website.  I wouldn't care about having the PC version out but I suppose that if they do a PC version they might as well do the 360 too since it's so close.  I have hoped for a while that this would be the case as it looks to me that Haze is shaping up to be a potentially BIG deal with franchise possibilities.  Right on!

    Whoever made haze is really smart. Now if only I could get M games...

    And I don't think its fair you were banned for starting the Xbox topic. Might want to E-Mail them. Maybe they had the wrong idea or something.

    It was only a matter of time, now Ubisoft can focus on optimizing the game to its fullest for the PS3.

    • 2:40pm BST - August 31st, 2007

    Though I'm glad that this game is now exclusive to PS3, it can't be considered a great game until it's actually out so those of you getting it just because it's exclusive need to take a second look.  This game can be exclusive and still turn out like crap but since it's exclusive, we don't have to worry about making the game for the lowest common denominator.  Soime of you also need to grow up too.  I'll be waiting to see how this game turns out and I hope I'm not disappointed.

    We gotta support this decision by buying this game.

    It's about time a developer/publisher gives the PS3 some attention.  Somehow I knew Haze would be a PS3 exclusive despite the Xbox 360/PC development.  This article confirms my theory.

    This is gonna hurt.  I have a feeling with all these epic games coming, we are gonna start seeing a trend of this near the middle of next year.

    The only thing that I care about for this game is, is the game actually going to be any good? Only time will tell.... If it is, I just might pick it up after Christmas since there are a lot of other games coming out this holiday season.

    This news is the besy ive heard in a while. Also now Free Radical wont have to dumb down the game for the 360, meaning bluray can have bigger levels, sixaxis controls etc.
