Annapurna Resignations Leave 'Control 2' Development Unaffected

Annapurna Interactive's recent mass staff resignation sparked concerns about the future of its projects. However, several high-profile games appear unaffected.

Control 2, Wanderstop, and More Remain on Track

Following the mass resignation, developers reassured fans about the status of their games. Remedy Entertainment, self-publishing Control 2, confirmed its development continues unaffected by Annapurna Interactive's internal issues. Davey Wreden and Team Ivy Road similarly confirmed Wanderstop's continued progress. Matt Newell's Lushfoil Photography Sim, nearing completion, is also expected to proceed without significant disruption. Beethoven & Dinosaur also stated that Mixtape remains under development.

While these projects seem secure, uncertainty remains for others. No Code's Silent Hill: Downfall, Furcula's Morsels, Great Ape Games' The Lost Wild, Dinogod's Bounty Star, and the internally developed Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth lack public updates regarding their development status following the upheaval.

Annapurna Pictures CEO Megan Ellison affirmed a commitment to supporting its developer partners. While the future of Annapurna Interactive remains unclear, many developers express optimism about their individual projects.

Annapurna Interactive's Mass Resignation and Continued Support

The mass resignation of Annapurna Interactive's entire 25-person team stemmed from disagreements over the studio's future. This followed the departure of former president Nathan Gary. Despite the significant setback, Annapurna Pictures remains dedicated to interactive entertainment and innovative storytelling.
