Those looking for their whip cracking fix will have to seek elsewhere other than the 360 and PS3 this year, as LucasArts have just recently announced that the game, after many years of development has been cancelled. This comes just after the recent announcement of the Staff of Kings coming to the Wii, DS, PS2 and the PSP, another Indiana Jones title, and likely the reason for the cut of the next gen versions.

With the recent announcement that Lucasarts are working on Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings for Wii, DS, PS2 and the PSP, many people wondered what had happened with the “next gen” version of Indiana Jones that was highly boasted about a few years back, and if development of that game was happening, albeit quietly, concurrently with Staff of Kings.

However, this seems not to be the case, as Lucasarts have now confirmed they’ve decided to work solely on Staff of Kings, making a “strategic business decision” to end development of the 360/PS3 versions.
