Article by Polygon: It reflects on recent leaks of games mid-development and how these leaks offer a glimpse into the often secretive work that is done before a game is even officially announced.
Well thats simple. Almost every corporate project keeps its developmemt under wraps as much as possible. It allows them to change or remove or outright cancel stuff without the public weighing in.
My personal hypothesis why all the AAA publishers tend to be so secretive about their games: A large (but not the only) part in it is in order to hide the poor working conditions that are rampant in game development. You don’t want some stressed out game devs in front of a camera who are crunching day in and day out to churn out yet another milestone in order to appease the greed of the C-suit.
