Status: Lost

Cascade is a cancelled fantasy massively-multiplayer online game by Rare Ltd. that was in development for the Xbox 360.

After Perfect Dark Zero, Mark Edmonds and Chris Tilston used elements from a Perfect Dark prototype called Quest that started development in 2000. According to Jeton Grajqevci from Pure Rarity, the game went through several variations and names during its production.

Work on Cascade has been salvaged from other Rare Ltd. projects, including the networking code used in Conker: Live & Reloaded and Perfect Dark Zero. However, no completed project ever came from the work.

In 2007, the game was cancelled when the team decided to work on a port for GoldenEye 007 for XBLA instead, which was finished but never released. As of 2023 only a test animation for one of the characters and some concept art of the game have resurfaced.
