  So many studios shutting down in their wake, so sad to seeing them becoming EA.

    that’s not at all what is happening. Embracer spent ridiculous amounts of investor money to purchase every company they could. Embracer couldn’t raise more money this year and needs to pay wages, embracer literally can not afford to keep the lights on in these studios.

    This is just a shit show.

    Funnily enough, Embracer used to be an extension of THQ Nordic.
