Despite the extremely complicated beginnings of Mindseye, Build A Rocket Boy claims to want to keep the course and fight against the “saboteurs” who want to run the game.
Build A Rocket Boy may not be part of the studios Xboxbut unfortunately he shares a sad news with the Redmond firm. Indeed, following the catastrophic launch encountered by MindsEye Since June 10, the studio founded by Leslie Benzies is currently in a large period of crisis, which will soon end in a wave of dismissal within the workforce. However, the ex-producer of GTA Do not intend to let go of the case so easily.
The creators of Mindseye want to fight against the “saboteurs”
Indeed, as our colleagues from IGN report, the Boss of Build A Rocket Boy would have finally spoke internally to address the 300 employees of the studio as for the future of Mindseye. And to believe two of the employees, who naturally wanted to remain anonymous so as not to put their career in danger, Benzies would not have chewed his words. According to him, Mindseye’s failure would be due “To both internal and external saboteurs in the studio”and he does not intend to let it go.
“The former GTA manager would have insisted that Build A Rocket Boy was going to bounce back and relaunch Mindseye” Indicates in particular IGN. “Sources [du studio] told us that in internal, there is a fierce desire to save [le jeu] And to offer him a redemption arc, which would ultimately allow the studio to straighten out ”. But it would still be necessary that the heart is really there for the employees, who would currently be nearly a hundred to be on the hot seat. Both within the studio itself in Edinburgh and at Playfusion, which was bought at the end of 2024.
Of course, the conspirators of Benzies, which attributes Mindseye’s failure to the presence of « saboteurs »then did not fail to react. Because this is reminiscent of the words precisely by the other CEO of the studio, Mark Gerhard, who had also affirmed before the release of the game that people were paid to say evil in order to harm them. He had also done so that the officials would be none other than Rockstar Games, probably to take revenge on their disputes with Benzies.
On the way to redemption
Anyway, Build A Rocket Boy will undoubtedly have work to do if he wishes to straighten the bar for Mindseye, who today holds the sad record of the game mostly rated On Metacritic for 2025. Since its release, the title has already welcomed Several patches Intended to improve its condition, the last having just been deployed a few days ago. It is only unknown if the team will be able to follow its post-launching roadmap, supposed to introduce different additional content By early 2026.
