Blitz Games' upcoming zombie title Possession has officially been put on hold. It comes as no surprise, though, seeing as the last update we had on the game was late 2005.
A spokesperson for the company told GamesIndustry.biz that the delay is only temporary and that the Possession team has been reassigned for a "major new project" coming on PS3 and Xbox 360. "Much of the work done on Possession directly led to us signing this new game," he said, "and some of the technology has been enhanced further and will appear in this new title."
The new, unnamed project will be under Blitz Games' mature-centric Volatile label. Although they did say "temporary," the implication is that this major new title will be in development for quite some time. By the time it's finished, will it even be worth it to resume work on the zombie title?

Very clever putting the Star Wars reference in the picture. Now you're getting more inventive. But seriously, is this some 4/20 thing? Get high and think it's funny to make Star Wars references all day long. Not that it isn't funny. Keep it up 'stiq!

What if the Nazis made their soldiers into zombies! You'll get a WWII zombie game! Supposedly no publisher picked it up. No money means no game.

It was probably bad.
And the "Nazis turning soldiers into zombies" game has been done at least twice already: Wolfenstein and UberSoldier. ;)
