Human Head Shuts Down, Reforms Under Bethesda
Before Arkane Studios’ Prey would become a reality, developer Human Head Studios was working on Prey 2, the official sequel. It would eventually be canceled amid rumors of sabotage from IP holder Bethesda. Human Head would go on to develop Rune 2 but shut down just a day after the game’s launch. It turns out that the studio was hired by Bethesda to form Roundhouse Studios. Rune 2 publisher Ragnarok was blindsided by this and would file a lawsuit against the former Human Head Studios for refusing to provide code and assets for Rune 2 while becoming “uncommunicative and unavailable” weeks before launch. Curioser and curioser indeed.
