The cancelled Infinity Blade: Dungeons was slated to run on Unreal Engine 3, but a couple of months ago, Epic closed the shutters on developer Impossible Games and cancelled the game.

Earlier, Chair's studio chief Donald Mustard had expressed interest in developing more games in the Infinity Blade franchise. "There's more we at Chair are totally planning to do in the Infinity Blade universe," he told Eurogamer. "More games, more books, maybe even other products. And we are very excited about that."
