The recent Xbox layoffs have sent shockwaves through the gaming industry, with id Software being one of the hardest-hit studios. Despite the challenges, it appears that the team had been working on several exciting projects before the cuts.

A report has surfaced suggesting that id Software had pitched a new Perfect Dark game, codenamed 'Fury', which was described as a martial arts-inspired, John Wick-style game. This project, along with others, was reportedly in the works before the layoffs.
