FASA Runs To The Shadows News

Official forums confirm the months of rumours are true - FASA Studios closes its doors...
The vultures seemed to have been circling for quite some time, but today the rumours have been confirmed: FASA Studios has closed its doors. The studio, which produced this summer's cross-platform multiplayer shooter Shadowrun, had come under fire from several camps for the direction the game took - from its lack of content, to taking a radical departure from the original Shadowrun RPG brand.
Speaking on the official Shadowrun forums, 'Mitch' - presumed to be FASA's studio head Mitch Gitelman - confirmed that yesterday was the last day for the few remaining employees at the outfit that hadn't moved to other positions within Microsoft Game Studios:
"While the rumors have been circulating forever, we chose to wait on an official announcement because we didn't want people's attention distracted from our last product, Shadowrun, a game we love."
Shadowrun had been touted pre-launch as the lead title for Microsoft's Games for Windows and Games for Windows LIVE initiative, which has seen the likes of SEGA, Vivendi, and Eidos sign up.
