Terminal Reality, the Texas studio best known for titles including Nocturne, BloodRayne, and Ghostbusters: The Video Game has apparently shut down. Jesse Sosa, a former employee and 10-year veteran of the studio, today wrote on Facebook that the studio "seems to have finally shut down." The studio, based near Dallas, Texas, most recently shipped The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct for PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii U this past March. It also maintained a business licensing its Infernal Engine technology to other studios. It is unclear how many employees were affected, or even exactly when the company shut down. Its current website is a placeholder which directs visitors to its Facebook page, which has not been updated since October. No official details seem to have been released by the studio. Gamasutra has reached out to its former PR agency and employees to find out more, but has as yet been unable to corroborate this news. Comments from employees on Sosa's Facebook do not refute his assertion, however. If you have any details about this shutdown, please send them to [email protected] so we can update this story.
