It's a shame Revenant Hill has been cancelled, as I would have loved to see more from the Night In The Woods team. That's said, health is important and I wish Benson a quick recovery!

Night In The Woods Follow-Up Revenant Hill Canceled Due To Developer Illness

Writer Scott Benson is battling a severe illness that has forced him to step away from the project.

Game Informer
Night in the Woods co-creators' next game cancelled amid "serious health issues"

Revenant Hill, the next game from Night In The Woods' co-creators, and the co-op studio they founded, have both ended due to health issues.

Night in the Woods -tekijöiden uutuuspeli Revenant Hill on peruttu. Syynä on avainkehittäjien joukkoon kuuluneella Scott Bensonilla todettu sydämen vajaatoiminta, minkä myötä Benson ja tämän vaimo sekä luova kumppani Bethany Hockenberry ovat joutuneet luopumaan hankkeesta.

So. Over the past 12 months or so I got very sick and it didn't go away. Eventually I was diagnosed with severe heart failure, most likely from a virus. It will continue to greatly limit me for the foreseeable future and as such I've had to stop working in the manner I once did.

#TheGlorySociety Just announced they are dissolving the team and are cancelling #RevenantHill An extremely sad message. I was very excited to see a new game from them. But the reasons are health problems of part of the team, so it's totally reasonable. Hope it's not the last time we heard about this project.
