Xbox would probably spend more money shutting down Arkane Lyon than it would trying to finish and release Marvel's Blade, according to a union representing workers from the beloved imsim studio.

In a statement posted to the STJV (Syndicat des travailleureuses du jeu vidéo) website, the French union claimed that development on Marvel's Blade is "going fine" and is shaping up to be on par with Arkane's widely acclaimed gameography. By choosing to part ways with and potentially close the famed studio, the union says Microsoft is "sabotaging the game it funded."
