The last few weeks have been really catastrophic for the Spanish studio Tequila Works. Practically a month has passed since we learned that the Madrid-based company had made the tough decision to dispense with a good part of its staff due to a restructuring that was going to be carried out to work on a single title, nothing more. .
What’s more, this caused the development of another title that had not even been officially announced to date to be cancelled. Even so, it is clear that this did not end all the problems, because now Tequila Works has just left us with some pretty terrible news, since it has officially announced that has declared bankruptcy.

However, this It’s not the only thing that has happened in the last few hourswhy its founders have decided to get off the boat after making their resignation officialwhich has led to a change in its ranks so that Térence Mosca becomes the new general director of the studio.
In his first statements he highlighted that he feels very proud of everything the team has achieved so far, but market conditions have triggered these events. Likewise, he has pointed out that the philosophy that has always been maintained has been to create things with enthusiasm and that in these difficult times they are trying to provide all possible support and guidance to employees.
Tequila Works It began its journey in 2009 and since then he has left us with a few highly recommended games, such as RiME, Deadlight and more recently Song of Nunu, the last project he has worked on. We will have to see how it manages to move forward in 2024, which is being so hard for the video game industry due to the number of layoffs that have occurred.
