Urchin was the tentative title of a canceled Xbox 360 game by Rare. Little is known about the title itself as it was canceled only after a few months of development. [1]

History and Development

Lilith and her pig.

While any sort of plot is unknown, it can be assumed that the little girl seen in concept art released by Ryan Firchau was the intended protagonist. Her name was eventually revealed to be Lilith, and a pig or hog character she is seen with might have been her partner or sidekick.[1]

In addition to Lilith, concept art of a character known as The Dean exists along with a variety of animal knights. A few character models have surfaced along with a walk cycle of a monster, dubbed "the mutation" in concept art.

The concept art is very dark and disturbing, and the overall tone of the project was a far cry from Rare's usual, brighter works.

The game was being developed by the same team that worked on Conker: Live and Reloaded.
