Rockstar Games and its parent company Take-Two Interactive Software have apparently abandoned development of the espionage game Agent.

The game was announced in 2009 as a PlayStation 3 exclusive during Sony’s event at Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). But Rockstar has released almost no information about the title in the past nine years, when it has been working on titles such as Grand Theft Auto V, Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA Online, and Red Dead Online.
