What happened to rare things Everwild? It has been more than five years since Microsoft's X019 presentation announced the competition.

“Yes, the decayed state is just one of my favorite franchises, so one stays on the board. I do think the work Double Fine is doing and how Tim (Schafer) asks for feedback from the team. Another, I'm going to say that because I'm in rare lately. It's great to see the team have Everwild and the progress they've made.”
Spencer said Microsoft has been able to provide time for developers of these games (decayed state, the next one from double fines and Everwild) while still having a release schedule (obviously, obviously through the acquisition of Bethesda and Activision Blizzard's acquisition to support it).
“We can give those teams time,” Spencer said. “Next week, I'm going to be in Vancouver with the Alliance (Gears of War Developer), how fun that is that?”
