Spiders, the Paris-based studio behind the upcoming narrative RPG sequel GreedFall: The Dying World, is reportedly being shut down. Multiple outlets cite a recent report from French publication Origami, saying the developer is set to close its doors. The reports follow earlier workforce reductions: Spiders carried out layoffs last year that affected a significant portion of its staff.
Both sources also link the studio’s situation to its parent company, Nacon. They report that Nacon has been unable to find a buyer for Spiders after the company began insolvency proceedings and filed for insolvency. Eurogamer further describes the outcome as liquidation tied to Nacon’s failure to secure a purchaser.
The reports come weeks after GreedFall: The Dying World’s launch, with Eurogamer noting the title leaves early access less than two months before release. The available coverage does not add details about any immediate impact on publishing plans or remaining in-development work beyond the reported closure and liquidation process.
