Open-World Crime Game Samson Did Better On Console But Not Enough To Save Its Developer From Shutting Down
Swedish developer Liquid Swords, known for the crime game Samson, is shutting down due to bankruptcy. While the console versions for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S performed better than the PC release, sales were not enough to save the studio. Founder Christofer Sundberg confirmed all 27 employees are being let go, though unpaid salaries will be covered by Swedish law. Sundberg expressed pride in the team's work and is discussing the future of Samson.
