‘Alice: Asylum’ Proposal Rejected by EA, American McGee Ends Project

Despite American McGee‘s efforts to revive the Alice series with his proposed Alice: Asylum project, things have unfortunately come to an end. Not only has EA rejected McGee’s proposal, but it appears that McGee will also be exiting game development, entirely.

In a new Patreon post, McGee reports that despite putting together a proposal with Virtuos Studio with a detailed budget, EA has turned down the possibility of a new Alice game. “After several weeks of review, EA has come back with a response regarding funding and/or licensing for ‘Alice: Asylum’,” says McGee. “On the question of funding, they have ultimately decided to pass on the project based on an internal analysis of the IP, market conditions, and details of the production proposal.”

As for the potential of EA selling the property, McGee stated that EA sees the Alice license as “an important part of EA’s overall game catalogue”, and that selling or licensing it isn’t something they’re prepared to do for the present. With that, McGee says that he has exhausted “every option” for getting a new entry in the series off the ground. “With those answers from EA, there is no other way forward with the project. As such, we will be hibernating this Patreon page and related pre-production activities. The content will remain in place but we’ll no longer present options for funding ‘Alice: Asylum’ efforts via this (or any other) platform.”

McGee then went on to say with this response, he has “reached an endpoint with ‘Alice’ and with game production in general.” McGee states that he has no other ideas or energy left to apply toward getting a new Alice game made, nor does he have any interest in pursuing new game ideas “within the context of the current environment for game development.”

There is a silver lining to all of this, however. We will be seeing the series adapted into a television series, courtesy of Radar Pictures and X-Men writer and Solid Snake himself, David Hayter. As for the games themselves, you can pick up the second game in the series, Alice: Madness Returns, on Steam.

The Top 10 Streaming Scary Movies of Today (According to Netflix)

Given that Netflix really is the master of their own data, how many times a viewer streams The Ridiculous 6, or what films don't get watched all the way straight through, or how many times someone watches an episode of Bill Nye Saves the World, it was easy for them to come up with the list based on just one percentage: 70 percent.
