Are game studios suddenly abandoning Black developers? (www.gamedeveloper.com)

This makes me realize that I can't think of hardly any videogames with a black character at the forefront.

Sure, there are black playable characters in MOBAs and MMOs, but how many story-driven games have black characters at the forefront?

The most recent one I can think of is Alan Wake 2. And Spider-Man Miles Morales. But there really are so few compared to those with white main characters. Which is sad.

Prototype 2 (2012)

It's been a while, I can't really remember the game well but I do remember enjoying the prototype games.

I can't recall too many other games that haven't already been mentioned here either
