Development began in 2004 and the game was first announced at Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2006
Final Fantasy XV, originally titled Final Fantasy Versus XIII, it was announced in 2006 as a spinoff of Final Fantasy XIII for PlayStation 3. Following a long period with little news on the game, it was re-announced as the next mainline installment of the series on PlayStation 4 and underwent large changes in direction such as making the game a self-contained story and replacing the main heroine. The game is now scheduled for a worldwide release date in 2016, more than 10 years after it was initially announced.

Seems these games are finally coming, Looking forward to both! Both titles seem very poetic. Targeted for a 2016 release.

Probably the next Legacy of Kain:/

fallout 3 could be counted to here i guess, as interplay bankrupted while their studio worked on it and then the licence was sold to bethesda.

The old Fallout 3 that is: Van Buren. The Fallout 3 we got was completely different.

I never said that. I mean Interplay's Fallout 3 and Bethesda's Fallout 3 are two completely different games.

Yeah I believe the game itself was pretty near completion (I've heard like 95%?) and has way more in common with Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics than it does with the 3 we have now. I believe some of the story and places were recycled, but I don't think that happened until New Vegas?

Very well-anticipated sequel. Unfortunately, fans like you & me are still waiting, hoping....

Battlefront III. I'll believe it when it comes out.

Yeah, instead we get that stupid new Battlefront with no space battles or any of the stuff we (I) loved about the first two. Even the Star Wars in Disney Infinity 3.0 has space battles. xD

I thought of Beyond Good and Evil 2. First one came out back in 2003 and the sequel was unveiled in 2008. And well, 2015 and it's still nowhere to be seen.

Shemue 3
I believe it's been announced and cancelled several times over the past 15?-ish years or so. But now it's supposed to come out late 2017.

Ryse (Son of Rome) developed since 2006 and released in 2013 as totally different game.

Prey 2 went through hell (likely conceptualized in 2008, started real dev in 2011), but was finally definitively cancelled late last year. I wouldn't be too surprised to see it come back again one of these days -- I liked the concept and all the artwork I'd seen.

I thought the first Prey was kind of interesting, but not great. I thought the early stuff for Prey 2 seemed really promising, though. Honestly, I was surprised they were even going to make a sequel.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 for sure.
Aliens: Colonial Marines also was in development hell (and possibly should have stayed there): it was originally announced for 2001.
Starwars Battlefront III - was supposed to be released in 2008, but then LucasArts turned stupid, and later turned dead. (Well, mostly. It exists in the way Atari still exists - a name to be shuffled around for marketing & legal purposes)

Beyond Good and Evil had a cult following, that followed news of the impending sequel with fervor. Sadly, it (the sequel) was in development hell for a very, very long time.

Interstellar Marines....... First announcement was some time in the late 90's and its still in early access....

Can you give me titles that have been mired in development, nearly forever?
Like the game is ever-lasting development - No alpha, or beta testing.
One game that eventually emerged from development hell is Duke Nukem FOREVER. I thought it was never going to be released, doomed to development hell forever (no pun intended). It was finally released in '11, surviving its original publisher/developer that went bust (bankrupt), I believe.
However, I am looking for titles that are in an eternal development cycle. Any games, you geniuses?
