Overview
- Hideki Kamiya publicly renewed his call for a Scalebound revival on Friday by asking new Xbox chief Asha Sharma to “make it happen.”
- Kamiya told reporters he has not directly contacted Sharma and Xbox has made no public plans to restart the project.
- Kamiya said Clovers CEO Kento Koyama and several former Scalebound developers are willing to return and recently reunited for a dinner where the project came up.
- Scalebound was delayed and canceled by Microsoft in 2017 after reported development problems that were never fully explained, and existing footage keeps fan interest alive.
- Because reporting indicates Microsoft is still believed to own the Scalebound IP, a company decision under Sharma could enable a formal revival but technical feasibility and Xbox priorities make any comeback uncertain
