Versus Evil, publisher of titles such as The Banner Saga, closes its doors

Bad news for the video game industry this Christmas. The 13 workers who were part of the publisher Versus Evil were fired and the publisher closed its doors. Versus Evil has published titles like the excellent trilogy The Banner Saga, the Spanish game Unmetal, Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire and the recent Stray Souls. The announcement was published on the social network X, where the sad news was confirmed with an emotional message:

Today is a sad day. After 10 wonderful years, Versus Evil is closing its doors. We loved bringing you the best indie games we could find and sharing so many great memories with all of you, our amazing community! From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for everything! ♥️

Versus Evil had been in the industry for over 10 years, but It was purchased two years ago by tinyBuild for around $30 million.

. Ultimately, it was tinyBuild itself that shelved the editor two days before Christmas Eve. For us personally, Versus Evil was a publisher that we really liked, as you can see in our review of The Banner Saga. From the Xbox community, we wish the affected workers all the best..
