It looks like the MGS game got cancelled, announced by the designer and not IDW but more interestingly; there are some rumblings on Reddit that IDW is in trouble with key folks behind the TMNT and Batman games systems being laid off.

Some background please. These are announced games that haven't charged anyone yet?

Yes Sag, preorder was up for a very long time but it kept getting delayed. They never charged credit cards though.
I was optimistic about this one. Emerson's Specter Ops is top shelf in my opinion so I have faith in him to nail a stealth game.
The IDW speculation is concerning. I'm probably the biggest fan of the TMNT games around here and I think it's a fantastic system. Was hoping to try the Batman version at some point.

Just on the King of Average's channel that one of their top designers, Pete Walsh, has been pushed out and that rumours are that they may be exiting the boardgame industry (COVID has hit them).

I just checked out the Facebook fan page and they seem pretty convinced that IDW is done with games in agreement with southernman above. It also looks like folks that pre-ordered/kickstarted the Batman game will be receiving their orders but I have limited expectations of a retail release.

Yeah Pete Walsh was the main champion of the system after Kevin Wilson's contracted design work. I think Pete designed the entirety of the coop mode and regular rules help on the BGG forums.
