Piranha Bytes studio states it is "in a difficult situation"

Over the past few hours, there have been plenty of rumors of the closure of Piranha Bytes (ELEX, Gothic, Risen). Indeed, as part of its vast restructuring plan, Embracer has apparently decided to make the studio disappear.

However, the studio has come out to contradict this information, admitting that it is "in a difficult situation".

There's a lot of news circulating about us circulating right now and this is our anwer: Don't write us off yet! We do everything to continue creating worlds in which you can lose yourself [...]. We are convinced we will succeed."

The press release also states that the studio is looking for a partner to help create its next game. The future of Piranha Bytes is at stake, no doubt.
