King’s Quest IX cancelled

King’s Quest IX: Every Cloak Has a Silver Lining, the fan-made sequel to the classic King’s Quest series has been served with a cease-and-desist order by Vivendi Universal Games, Inc. (the company that now owns all Sierra On-Line’s copyrights).

This coincides with the recent option to prepurchase the rereleases of Sierra’s classic adventures collections on Amazon.

The King’s Quest IX project’s full statement about the cancellation can be read on their site.
