Sackbird Studios is an independent developer with no outside investors and full creative control.
Unfortunately, following the cancellation of Project Blackbird earlier this year, a good chunk of Zenimax Online Studios employees were let go. However, on the lighter side of things it seems that some of the laid off employees are now boldly forging their own path ahead at the brand-new Sackbird Studios.
As announced via its own website, Sackbird Studios is self-funded, with no outside investors.
