Amazon cancels 'Breakaway' video game

The team behind the competitive battle game Breakaway announced this weekend that the game "is no longer in active development" on Reddit. The brawler was being developed by Double Helix and published by Amazon Game Studios. It was one of three games Amazon's in-house game studio was planning on releasing. Back in October, the team announced that it would be focusing on changes to Breakway's core gameplay. This was in response to feedback that the development team received after a four-month Alpha testing period. As a result, the game was put on hiatus, with no timeline for when the game would finally release.
