Scivelation[edit]

This article is on an unreleased video game in development. There is no substantial coverage about this game that would establish notability. The two references in the article are not substantial. One is a trailer, and the other is basically a note saying the game is coming as they got a press release. My own searches turn up the similar stuff. For example, this item in Giant Bomb.

Keep. Might be unreleased, but it has significant coverage. E.g.,

Press releases (posting so as not to be construed as coverage): [1][2]

I usually recommend searching WP:VG/RS's custom Google search before bringing an item to AfD. Also, since there are pages for this game's dev, it might have been a good idea to try even redirection as a minimum before bringing the topic to AfD. Anyway, given the above sources, I recommend withdrawing the nom. czar ♔ 17:47, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
