A publisher probably one of the best for its quality and finance smaller games that may not get attention otherwise has had their entire staff resign. Annapurna Interactive are the publisher of What Remains Of Edith Finch and Stray. Which now that I think about it makes me wonder about the Switch port for Stray given that was just announced. The resignations come from what seems to be disagreements over the business. CEO Megan Ellison was unwilling to spin off and allow their games to become its own company in a way similar to how Marvelous has film and television or how Lucas Arts has its own gaming company as well as amazing movies. Annapura has multiple divisions including film and television, but was unwilling to allow video games their own division. The company is shuffling its remaining staff into other departments as well.

I find that incredibly weird as video games are the second most profitable media and all of the games it has created have been well received with high ratings. Also, I have never heard of any of their films or television shows, but have seen playthroughs and have been planning to try both Stray and What Remains of Edith Finch. I do hope the developers are able to go indie and create their own stuff because their games are amazing and deserve more credit.
