You might be wondering what has happened to Prey 2, the delayed shooter that Bethesda was supposed to release this year. Rumors have suggested that maybe it was actually cancelled, that maybe developer Human Head Studios is no longer working on it, that maybe Bethesda has just given up.

There's a good reason Prey 2 has been delayed to 2013, as announced today. It's because its development studio hasn't worked on the game since November, according to an anonymous source speaking to Shacknews.

Prey 2, as we expected, will be a very different sort of game then the original. Gone is the conflicted Native American hero. Gone too is the linear gameplay of the original.
