From my discussions with a contact at Harmony Gold, honestly I would think if anything was to come out in the near future it won't be based on Shadow Chronicles due to the series animation being placed on hold while they still figure out if the live-action movie is ever going to happen.

(Toby Maguire is free right now, so he might try to push the project forward)

Honestly, I hope the idea gets shot down and they can get back to working on Shadow Chronicles. Regardless of personal opinions it was received quite well, including fan-subs in Japan where some have treated it (not as Robotech but) as a G.C.Mospeada sequel.

Shadow Chronicles?

The sooner that movie is forgotten, the better.

It lost me the second it rewrote the ending of the cartoon. Plus, the CG made for a much less impressive look. I hate it when sequels unwrite previous plot points.

Robotech as a whole hasn't necessarily aged well, but you still have to respect the complexity of the hand drawn artwork during the battle sequences. Computer animated veritechs cut and pasted across a starfield isn't quite the same. Plus, they created that weird juxtaposition of style that ruined TF Cybertron.

If a Robotech game were based on Shadow Chronicles, I would not buy it.
