Helldivers 2 is one of the hottest games right now, powered by the Autodesk Stingray engine, once called Bitsquid. It was discontinued in 2018.

While using the same engine to build the sequel wouldn’t necessarily raise eyebrows in of itself, Autodesk Stingray was discontinued in 2018, six years before Helldivers 2 came out.

In 2014, Autodesk bought Bitsquid, renamed it Autodesk Stingray, then discontinued it in 2018. One of the last games released using Stingray was Fatshark's Warhammer 40,000: Darktide in 2022.
