According to Wccftech, Atomic Arcade has reportedly been shut down following a decision by Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast. Former gameplay programmer Dominic Braun shared on LinkedIn that he was laid off after the closure decision. The studio was developing a game based on Snake Eyes, first revealed in 2022, but there’s still no official confirmation from the companies about the shutdown or the game’s future.
The reported closure comes during a wave of industry layoffs and shutdowns, including restructuring at Ubisoft, layoffs impacting VR studio Camouflaj after cuts at Meta, team reductions at Riot Games, and layoffs at Wildlight Entertainment. If true, the shutdown means the Snake Eyes project may face delays or uncertainty.
Do you think Hasbro should continue investing in big-budget games based on its IPs?
