3D Realms, the company behind franchises such as Duke Nukem and Shadow Warrior, has unveiled a new logo.
3D Realms and Slipgate Ironworks have suffered from a second round of layoffs following one that hit both companies in the middle of December.
The only news coming from Embracer is canceled games, closed studios and layoffs. That’s what happen when you accumulate to many studios at once. There’s another company that will be doing the same thing here over the next handful of years especially if daddy’s money doesn’t bail them out.
They're not crumbling specifically because they acquired so many studios. It's because they built everything up based on a $2B investment and didn't have any plan in place to pivot if the deal fell through, which it did. They were reckless and stupid.
More layoffs at Embracer Group, as the publisher as reportedly fired half of 3D Realms and Slipgate Ironworks.
Hope that the ones fire are the Decision makers in Slipgate Ironworks and those responsible for greenlighting those decisions over at 3D Realms. Cuz they are mediocre at what they do...
Lol!! What am I even saying? Their just gonna fire all the people actually working hard on the games instead. Oopsie! My bad.
Monopoly and Consolidation of the game industry is Nooice!!!
Me and most of my concept art buddies got laid off as well a few days back –different daughter company though. Such a wonderful start of this magical month 🤣
"3D Realms are today very proud and excited to announce their games lineup for the Gamescom 2023 event, and that Gamescom lineup consits of their upcoming titles "Phantom Fury", "RIPOUT" and "Ion Fury: Aftershock"." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Yeah looks 3D realms alright, just a tad up from Running with scissors. Fitting as a $20.00 budget tile (current gen), or a $60.00 switch release.
I guess we should see these games in about another 20 years after another development company picks up the pieces and finishes them.
They still exist?
