\"Steelrising,<\/a> Image: Push Square<\/p>\n

Spiders, the French game studio owned by Nacon, will soon close its doors.<\/p>\n

That’s according to a new report from Origami<\/a>, which claims the developer will move into liquidation tomorrow \u2014 29th April 2026 \u2014 following serious financial troubles at the publisher.<\/p>\n

The report says Nacon had been searching for a buyer for Spiders, but has failed to do so, and will request its liquidation amid financial restructuring plans.<\/p>\n

Moving the studio into liquidation is described as a “mere formality at this stage”, say sources close to the matter.<\/p>\n

Parisian team Spiders is best known for the GreedFall<\/a> games and its Souls-like action RPG Steelrising<\/a>, though it’s of course made many other titles.<\/p>\n

According to this report, the staff are now being instructed to update CVs and engage in self-study sessions rather than working on future projects.<\/p>\n

Sadly it does appear that things are winding down at Spiders, which filed for insolvency last month along with other Nacon studios, Kylotonn and Cyanide. The status of those other two teams is not known at this moment.<\/p>\n
