Paladin Studios has shut down.
The indie studio – established in the Netherlands in 2005 – announced the closure earlier this week, saying its “quest [had] come to an end” and 45 people, “each and every one of them a brilliant mind and kind heart”, have lost their jobs.
“For almost 19 years, we have poured our hearts and souls into creating games that make you smile,” the team said in a heartfelt statement posted to its official website (thanks, VGC).
