Ontwikkelaar Volition, de studio achter games als Red Faction en Saints Row, zal na dertig jaar ophouden te bestaan, zo is zojuist naar buiten gebracht.
In een bericht op de officiële LinkedIn pagina is te lezen dat moederbedrijf Embracer Group afgelopen juni een herstructureringsprogramma had aangekondigd om hun positie in de industrie te versterken. Onderdeel van dit programma is om de strategische en operationele doelstellingen onder de loep te nemen en daaruit is voortgekomen dat Volition zal sluiten.
Onderstaand het volledige bericht.
quote: The Volition team has proudly created world-class entertainment for fans around the globe for 30 years. We’ve been driven by a passion for our community and always worked to deliver joy, surprise, and delight.
This past June, Embracer Group announced a restructuring program to strengthen Embracer and maintain its position as a leader in the video game industry. As part of that program, they evaluated strategic and operational goals and made the difficult decision to close Volition effective immediately.
To help our team, we are working to provide job assistance and help smooth the transition for our Volition family members. We thank our customers and fans around the world for all the love and support over the years. You will always be in our hearts.
