TinyBuild Shuts Down Indie Game Publisher Versus Evil, Lays Off Entire Staff

Closure Follows Financial Struggles and Legal Disputes, Leaving Future of Upcoming Games Uncertain

TinyBuild, the parent company of indie game publisher Versus Evil, has laid off the entire staff of Versus Evil and shut down the company.
Versus Evil was known for publishing popular indie games such as The Banner Saga and Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire.
The closure of Versus Evil comes after TinyBuild recently announced lower-than-expected revenue and cost-cutting measures, including layoffs at the company.
Versus Evil was acquired by TinyBuild in 2021, and the acquisition ran into legal trouble with a $3.5 million settlement deal with the founders of Versus Evil over allegations that TinyBuild failed to meet obligations related to the deal.
The fate of upcoming games from Versus Evil, some of which were delayed, is currently uncertain.
