Embracer has shut down Items Interactive, the developer of the <a href="https://www.gameinformer.com/preview/2023/05/25/a-forefather-of-survival-horror-returns">Alone within the Darkish reimagining</a> that arrived earlier this 12 months. The studio is the newest to be closed by the troubled firm over the past 10 months.
Items Interactive’s web site now solely contains a graphic itemizing “2007-2024 Thanks For Enjoying With Us” and a brief blurb detailing its historical past:
Items Interactive launched over ten titles on PC, Console and Cellular since 2007, each our personal ideas similar to Puzzlegeddon, Fret Good, Leviathan Warships, Robo Surf and Kill to Acquire, in addition to work for rent titles similar to Magicka 2 and several other DLCs for Magicka. Our consumer checklist consists of Paradox Interactive, Koei Tecmo, Arrowhead Sport Studios, Koch Media and RaceRoom Leisure.
In 2017, Items Interactive had been acquired by Embracer Group after working with the growth for Titan Quest, Titan Quest: Ragnarök and third growth for Titan Quest, Titan Quest: Atlantis.
Our final launch was the reimagening of Alone within the Darkish.
Alone within the Darkish launched on March 20 to blended evaluations, at the moment sitting at a 63 on Metacritic. The sport stars actors Jodie Comer and David Harbour, who lent their voices and likenesses, in a third-person reimagining of the 1992 survival horror traditional.
Following the collapse of a $2 billion take care of the Saudi Arabia-backed Savvy Video games Group in 2023, Embracer has undergone an enormous restructuring to remain afloat, leading to a major discount of headcount throughout its many studios. That has included shedding over 1,000 workers (together with these at Eidos-Montreal), promoting off its studios (Saber Interactive, Gearbox Leisure), and outright closing others (Free Radical Design, Volition Video games). Embracer has most not too long ago cut up itself into three separate corporations, with its studios divided amongst them.
