Check Out Concept Art For Canceled Valve Game Stars of Blood

In 2012, Valve's Gabe Newell mentioned they canceled a game called Stars of Blood that would focus on space pirates. "We kind of had an internal project that was called Stars of Blood, which was a space pirate game and it never saw the light of day," Newell said back in 2021.
