- According to the source, Sega is halting sales of the 'Complete Edition' remaster of the 2011 strategy game 'Total War: Shogun 2'. The edition bundles the base game with all DLC and was promised improved graphics, UI scaling for 1440p and 4K resolutions, and updated controls.
- After launch, complaints followed about bugs and upscaled art that users believe was made with AI. The game received an 'Overwhelmingly Negative' rating on Steam, and sales have already been halted.
- Sega and developer Creative Assembly admitted in a joint statement that the current state falls short of expectations and their own standards. They said they would make the original game available again, and existing buyers can keep accessing the Complete Edition.
- The Steam page also lists Mataboo as a developer studio. Sega said it is working with development partners to find and fix the causes of the problems. The causes and fix schedule are not confirmed in the source.
O: This fits a scene where a user who already bought the Complete Edition checks in Sega's announcement how the restoration of the original game and the access rights of existing buyers will change.
X: The statements from Sega and Creative Assembly are claims by the announcing parties, and whether AI upscaling was used, along with the cause of the problem and the fix schedule, is not confirmed in the source.
