Canceled games

A South Park game was in development for the Game Boy Color (1998), [2] as well as one for Xbox, GameCube and PlayStation 2. [3] Both games were cancelled shortly before release, due to the show's creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker expressing concerns about releasing a game on a platform marketed primarily towards children, although the Game Boy Color ROM was leaked in 2018. The Game Boy Color game was reskinned into a Maya the Bee video game titled Maya the Bee & Her Friends , which was released in 1999; the game was also reskinned as The New Adventures of Mary-Kate and Ashley, based on Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and was released in North America, being one of the various video games based on the duo. [4]

Another game entitled A Week in South Park was also in development for the PlayStation and PC during the same time as South Park . This game was reported to be "around 15 percent done" before it was canceled. [5]
