"textContent": "**Paladin** is a **cancelled open world Action medieval game** developed **around 2007-2008** by Midway Studios Austin (formerly Inevitable Entertainment) and published by Midway Games for the **PC** , **PS3** and **Xbox 360** platforms. The game was using the Unreal Engine 3.\n\nFor years, **few information were available** regarding Paladin as it was cancelled before being announced. On his personal website, Richie Romero, who were **Art Director** at Midway until the closure of the company, shared screenshots and videos to what appears to be an action game set in the medieval times with open world elements. During that period, Midway Studios Austin was **split in two teams** , both working on different projects: Paladin, and Career Criminal, which was cancelled in **August 2008** , following publisher’s huge financial loss.\n\nWhile no official announcement were made during its development, we can speculate that Paladin was cancelled back in **December 2008** , when the studio was closed by Midway which still faced financial difficulties:\n\n> Facing possible bankruptcy, Midway games will close its Austin studio entirely, suspend development on several unspecified titles, and reduce its workforce by 25 percent. (…) Midway did not list which projects it plans to cancel or suspend, but calls them “non-core” projects slated for **2010** and **2011** that had not yet been announced. (…)\n\nAlongside Paladin and Career Criminal, Midway’s bankruptcy also led to the cancellations of various projects such as Stranglehold 2: Gun Runner, This is Vegas, Hero or even a new take on Mortal Kombat.\n\n**Videos:**\n\n**Images:**\n\nThe post Paladin (Midway Studios Austin) [PC/PS3/Xbox 360 – Cancelled] appeared first on Unseen64: Beta, Cancelled & Unseen Videogames!.",
