Uh, this is a huge deal. Terrible news.
Terrible news…for Megan Ellison. Can’t wait to see what the inevitable independent studio they’ll form puts out.
I was extremely excited by the recent news that Control was going to be adapted into film and or TV. This could be a massive risk to that going ahead.
This is true! But I think the “good” (?) news there is Annapurna Studios is not going anywhere, and they retained all the IP their subsidiary holds. Sucks for the former Annapurna Interactive folks that they can’t bring the IP with them, but c’est la vie.
That deal only really made sense because it was with a company that did both things.
Ahh fuck, stuff being published by them was usually a decent sign that it’d be interesting in some way. Best of luck to the actual team, I hope they can put something new together
Uhh, what kinda dispute causes an entire staff to quit??
Can’t see any reason mentioned in the article other than a disagreement with the owner.
Just seems crazy that they’ve let such a successful team walk away, when it sounds like the team were willing to find a way forward…
the staff wanted equity vis a vis the spinoff, and ownership decided they didn’t want to give it to them
