Amazon arbejdede på et tidspunkt på et gigantisk MMO sammen med kinesiske Tencent, og selvom at arbejdet fortsatte i flere år, så blev det afsløret sidste år at hele projektet var aflyst.
Men hvorfor? I et interview med GameSpot fortæller Amazon Games-præsident Christoph Hartmann, at det simpelthen blev så besværligt at arbejde med Tencent hen af vejen. Faktisk lavede de aftalen med et andet studie, Leyou, til at starte med, der dog midvejs blev købt af Tencent:
"We had a deal with a Hong Kong-based company, Leyou; I think it would have been great to work with them. But they later got sold to Tencent and it just got very complicated. The question was, sure, maybe could have worked together with Tencent to do something, but I think we're too big as companies to really turn into partners doing a property together where they own the license and we develop the game. So we decided it's better to not work together there. Then we tried to figure something out with both ends, but I think it just dragged on too long."
Amazon har dog haft held med både New World of Lost Ark.
