The German branch of Factor 5 officially confirmed the closure of the US branch.
Today on the official website of Factor 5 GmbH, Achim Moller, the CEO of the German studio, confirmed that San Rafeal-based Factor 5, Inc. has officially closed down. The studio, responsible for the popular Rogue Squadron series, fell on hard times after the bankruptcy of business partner Brash Entertainment. That combined with the tough economic climate made it impossible for the studio to survive.
Moller has confirmed that Factor 5 GmbH, which is based in Cologne, Germany, is not affected by Factor 5, Inc.'s closure. The company will reveal their upcoming projects in a couple of months.
