Nacon's ongoing financial restructuring has resulted in the liquidation of its subsidiary studio Spiders, mere weeks after the full release of GreedFall: The Dying World. The French developer, known for titles such as GreedFall and Steelrising, confirmed the closure in a Facebook post, stating that the company will cease operations immediately. This follows reports that Nacon was unable to secure a buyer for Spiders amid its insolvency proceedings.

Spiders' announcement apologizes for recent silence and notes that planned DLC for their latest title will be released by publisher Nacon before final shutdown. The studio, which has operated for 18 years, directed users with game-related issues to contact Nacon directly. No further details on employee transitions or IP futures were provided.

Nacon filed for insolvency earlier this year, leading to asset sales and studio divestitures as part of a broader effort to stabilize operations. Industry reports indicate this is the first major casualty of the publisher's financial difficulties, with Spiders falling victim after the recent launch failed to attract sufficient interest from potential acquirers. The metrics, it seems, did not align favorably.

Community reactions on platforms like X express disappointment but acknowledge the unpredictable nature of publishing economics. For now, the focus shifts to Nacon's handling of remaining obligations, in what can only be described as a mildly sobering development for the RPG sector.
