The Rise and Fall of Embracer Group

⁣What happens when a company with more money than sense trys to be the next EA? Chaos.

The Swedish game publisher, Embracer Group, enlists a new investor to take over the gaming world. But once the deal falls through, it’s followed by a trail of destruction. Leading to the closure of studios like Volition, thousands of layoffs and dozens of projects cancelled (including a new Deus Ex).

Somehow there is a gaming company that's more mismanaged than Ubisoft, and closes more studios than EA

This is very sudden rise, and catastrophic fall of Embracer Group
