Loading ...Highlander is a canceled third-person action game developed by Widescreen Games which was going to be published by Square-Enix for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC. The player had to control Owen MacLeod, a predecessor of the more famous immortals Connor MacLeod and Duncan MacLeod of the tv series, through an epic adventure that began in the Colosseum of ancient Rome and which was supposed to be concluded in the New York of our time.
Much like Ninja Gaiden, the main character could use many kinds of weapons and spells. The possibility of choosing between various fighting styles and the division of the game in eighteen missions suggests that Devil may cry was an inspiration too. Even if the game was originally announced in 2005, the first trailer of Highlander, embedded below, was shown to the public only in 2008. In 2010, Square Enix officially confirmed the cancellation of this project.

I remember that the game had a great concept art (especially the villain).

I worked in that company at that time. The game was almost finished but it was very bad. This is why they cancelled it.

Even though the person who worked on this game says it was bad, please elaborate on that statement. From the screenshots and the trailer it would have sounded like a good action-packed game. Sadly, it was cancelled.
