Yes, this is in relation to the closing of Tango Gameworks and Arcane Austin. Is there some immediate monetary benefit behind it that I have no idea about? Is it so they can keep the IPs and not have to deal with the developers? Are the Studios too expensive for anyone to buy? I honestly don’t understand how these executives play Capitalism.
Technically?
Nothing.
Realistically?
Money, you need money to get an office, money to pay the bills, money to pay the staff, money to buy the tools the devs will be using.
Also, some staff will be headhunted during the process of setting up the new studio.
