The mass-exodus came after negotiations between the employees and owner Megan Ellison fell through.
According to the Hollywood Reporter and Bloomberg, prolific videogame publisher Annapurna Interactive has functionally collapsed, with its senior leadership team and the entirety of its over 20-person staff resigning. The shocking move leaves the future of Annapurna’s active development deals in question.
Annapurna Interactive is a subsidiary of Annapurna Pictures, a prolific production company owned and founded by Megan Ellison, daughter of billionaire Oracle founder Larry Ellison. The games division was opened up in 2016 under the auspices of some industry veterans, and hit the ground running, publishing influential independent games like Kentucky Route Zero, Outer Wilds, Neon White, and Stray.
The Hollywood Reporter was first to the news, covering the departure of senior executives at Annapurna, including company president Nathan Gary. Gary was one of those founding industry veterans of the interactive division, and, since 2021, the president of Annapurna Pictures overall.
