Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Developer Shuttered

BORDERLANDS

It's never fun to see a developer closed down and that goes doubly when they have produced good content. Sadly, that is exactly what is happening to 2K Australia, the developer behind Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.

Kotaku report that the developer is being closed down by its parent's 2K publisher, meaning that the last company working on AAA games in Australia is no more.

In a statement, the publisher said:

We can confirm we have taken steps to begin the studio closure process for 2K Australia in order to better manage ongoing development costs while improving the working proximity of our creative teams. We are very grateful for the team's valuable contributions to numerous 2K projects, and are working with affected staff to explore reassignment opportunities where possible.

It's really sad to see the developer out of action. Borderlands: The Pre-Seqeul was a good effort and to see a whole culture disappear in Australia over night is sad. I wish the best to all affected.
