Cipher Complex is an action game that was created for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 by Edge of Reality Games. The game was going to be published by SEGA, but in mid 2009 (after 3 years of work) it seems that they decided to stop the development, as noted in the resume of a former employer of the studio. In the original press release we can still read the main plot that was going to be used in the game:

U.S. surveillance satellites detect activity onboard the decommissioned Soviet Bargration Missile Defense Station 4 off the east coast of Siberia. When the Russians deny the U.S. access to the facility, Department of Defense strategists suggest that a small, plausibly deniable reconnaissance mission be sent in to investigate. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency is given the go-ahead for operation BLACKOUT, the insertion of a single expert Operator on Russian WMDs and launch facilities. Lt. Col. John Sullivan, callsign: Cipher is air dropped in, and what was supposed to be primarily a reconnaisance mission becomes a race against a terrorist threat; one with implications that will shake the foundations of American democracy and freedoms.

It’s still unknown if this game will really be cancelled or it could be resurrected somehow.

Thanks to Hey Hey for the contribution!
