Following a "strategic review," the company made the "difficult but necessary decision" to focus on the Payday franchise's growth.
As part of the deal with Plaion, Starbreeze had to issue a host of new series B shares of the company which would go to Embracer Group.
In its recent earnings report, Starbreeze has revealed high hopes for the future of Payday thanks to collaborations and partnerships.
The Unreal Engine 5 title will be available for "all major platforms" with cross-play support and a games-as-a-service model.
