The publisher recently sold the rights to the upcoming System Shock 3 back to OtherSide Entertainment.

It’s currently unknown what will ultimately happen with Starbreeze. In addition, it appears that Starbreeze has been on shaky ground for years now, with numerous instances of ill-advised spending. Following the disastrous launch, reports came out about the rocky development history of this game. It definitely seems that Overkill’s The Walking Dead has been troubled from the start. Starbreeze’s offices were later raided over insider trading suspicions. Not only did Starbreeze file for reconstruction, CEO Bo Andersson also stepped down. However, things only got worse from there.

It was essentially dead on arrival, with low initial sales causing Starbreeze to reassess its costs. This news shouldn’t necessarily be surprising, as publisher Starbreeze has been in trouble from the moment Overkill’s The Walking Dead released on PC.
