The Nightdive and Atari deal was not received with enthusiasm from fans.
What about the Nightdive and Atari deal?
Last week, Nightdive Studios, the studio in charge of bringing back legendary ’90s shooters like Turok and Turok 2, Blood, Quake, and Powerslave as well as the planned System Shock remake, was unexpectedly acquired by Atari.

Due to Atari’s minimal current reputation, which has resulted from endeavors like the unimpressive Atari VCS and perplexing Atari Hotels, as well as its embrace of cryptocurrency and NFTs, which went as well as one might expect, the news hadn’t been received with universal optimism.
By the end of April, Atari’s acquisition of Nightdive Studios is anticipated to be finalized. We are all eagerly anticipating the release of Nightdive’s System Shock reboot on May 30. This game looks really promising and hopefully, the deal won’t affect its launch.
According to Kuperman, Atari invested $10 million in Nightdive and may spend an additional $10 million over the following three years depending on the company’s performance. You can find out more right here.
What’s your take on Atari’s move? Do you think it was a good idea to acquire Nightdive?
