Greedfall studio Spiders reportedly facing imminent closure

Over the years, Spiders began to grow a reputation for its RPGs, which didn't quite hit AAA quality, but had cult appeal. Unfortunately, the studio may now be facing closure. 

According to a report from Origami, Spiders has been unable to find a buyer after a number of Nacon-owned studios went insolvent. As a result, layoffs at the studio may begin soon as it winds down operations.

This would mean that while the Greedfall IP lives on paper, there will no longer be a team to work on it, so fans may never see a true Greedfall 2. Spiders did just bring Greedfall: The Dying World out of Early Access, but it is a prequel to the first game, and not as well received as the original. The game was also clearly not a sales hit, as Spiders is now facing imminent closure.

According to Insider Gaming, Spiders had been working on a project titled ‘Dark' in 2025 but it was cancelled in late 2025. It is also claimed that the studio had been pitching Greedfall 2.

KitGuru Says: This is a huge shame and rather unexpected given that Nacon was set to make a number of major game announcements just weeks ago before the financial situation came to light.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
