Rockstar Games has deleted Agent from their official website, thereby putting an end to the long-dormant PlayStation exclusive.
Agent was a much-touted PS3 exclusive from Rockstar Games that never seemed to materialise. All we had was the game’s logo, which featured a pistol incorporated in it. Fans had hoped to see this project resurrected at some point, and Rockstar Games had kept their hopes alive by maintaining the project on their official website, however that is no longer the case.
As recently found, any traces of Agent in the Rocstar website’s games section have been erased. All we have left is a project that never saw the light of day, save for a logo that hinted it could be an espionage thriller from Rockstar Games.
When the game was initially revealed in 2007, Rockstar Games also released a press release with some information about it.
Rockstar Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), is proud to announce Agent. Developed by the people behind Grand Theft Auto, Rockstar North, Agent will be available exclusively for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system.
“We have always enjoyed making action games, and with Agent we are making what we believe will be the ultimate action game,” said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. “Agent is a game we have wanted to make for a long time. The team in Edinburgh is doing an amazing job combining intense action, atmosphere and story in a great period setting to create something that feels quite unique. We cannot wait for people to experience this game.”
Agent takes players on a paranoid journey into the world of counter-intelligence, espionage and political assassinations during the height of the Cold War at the end of the 1970s.
That’s all we know about the game because nothing came from it. Rockstar Games’ official website for Agent currently just leads to the homepage.
