  • Spiders, the developer of GreedFall and Steelrising, faces imminent liquidation following a failed sale attempt by parent company Nacon.
  • The trustee overseeing Spiders' bankruptcy is filing a court petition for liquidation on April 29, 2026, which would trigger a 15-day window to disband the studio upon approval.
  • Spiders employees have largely halted game development to focus on job hunting and professional development, with the studio allowing staff to purchase their own equipment.
