You reported a possible source for those claims. I want a bit more specificity about their assertions, considering that Creative Studio 3 (CS3) is also responsible for both Dragon Quest X and Final Fantasy XI.

In the eight months since the article you quoted was written, CS3 is mentioned in connection with two new games.

The first game is Eternal Strands, developed by Yellow Brick Games and released just over two weeks ago.

The second is the mobile FFXIV game being developed by Lightspeed Studios.

Both games are in collaboration with CS3, neither should involve massive resources taken from this game to complete.

Perhaps the blatant Botanist has other sources for their assertions. Since they have not answered at this point, we can only wait and see.
