The Perfect Dark reboot has been great news for Xbox fans and gamers alike, who have been getting their hopes up about what the game will offer ever since they were able to appreciate the unveiling and confirmation of this. However, it seems that during its development, it has had several problems, since the Perfect Dark studio would have suffered personnel changes due to leadership and cultural issues, although at the moment it is not specified what kind of problems.
Via Twitter, the publisher of VGC, Andy Robinson, has come out to comment on his experience and what he knows about the case from The Initiative, the studio that is working on the reboot of the game together with Crystal Dynamics. Let us remember that long ago, the game’s director, Dan Neuburger, left the project due to alleged disagreements with the studio’s structure, so everything seems to indicate that something is not working well within the development.
FTR, I’ve spoken to many current and former employees stating that the flood of departures very much is a sign of a problem. Not with the multi studio setup – it was always their intention to partner with an experienced dev – but many seemingly had issues with Initiative leadership https://t.co/QyXN03K9je

The new information and rumors according to Andy Robinson, say that “the rush of departures is very much a sign of a problem.” Speaking with many current and former employees, it was revealed that while the partnerships the studio is making to develop Perfect Dark have not been a problem, It is the lack of leadership that they have had with the development of the game that is the great problem of the workers, who feel in doubt about the future of the title. In addition, many also criticize the lack of “organizational culture” that the study has, although they have not revealed more details about it.
Undoubtedly, new information that leaves fans of the title a little hesitant, who eagerly await its premiere. Although nothing else is known about this case at the official level by The Initiative, It has been the various workers who have expressed their discomfort with the decision-making of the study, in a swing that we hope will not have direct consequences in its development.
