Pieces Interactive, the developer behind the recent Alone in the Dark reboot, has been shut down by Embracer.
The developer’s website now reads “thanks for playing with us” and the dates 2007-2024. “Our last release was the reimagining of Alone in the Dark,” it concludes (thanks IGN).
Embracer acquired Pieces in 2017 after working on a number of Titan Quest projects. The Swedish conglomerate has closed a number of developers over the past year, resulting in layoffs.
Dick’s.
Fuck Embracer group. They’re doing so much damage to all these talented people right now. Studio acquisitions are getting far out of hand.
