Take-Two Interactive, the publisher behind notable titles like Grand Theft Auto and Kerbal Space Program 2, is making significant moves regarding its indie label, Private Division. Reports indicate that Take-Two is shutting down Intercept Games, the developer of Kerbal Space Program 2, and Roll7, the developer of OlliOlli World. This is part of a broader strategy to either sell or close down Private Division entirely. Despite CEO Strauss Zelnick's reassurances that the studios were not closed, it has been confirmed that both are set to cease operations soon. Take-Two is also looking to offload Private Division, with discussions currently underway with various parties but facing challenges due to previous allegations of poor working conditions involved with potential buyers such as Moon Studios.

What is happening to Kerbal Space Program 2's developer Intercept Games?n

Intercept Games, the developer behind Kerbal Space Program 2, is scheduled to close on June 28, following a required notice period under the Washington State WARN Act. This closure is part of Take-Two's broader strategy to either sell off or shut down its indie label, Private Division.

Kerbal Space Program 2, a sequel to the beloved space simulation game Kerbal Space Program, was developed by Intercept Games and published by Private Division. The original game was a massive hit due to its realistic physics and challenging gameplay that allowed players to build and manage their own space program. The sequel aimed to expand upon these foundations but has faced delays and challenges, especially in light of the recent developments involving its developer.
