It’s official the development Studio behind the long-awaited and overdue Stargate Worlds and the recently released Stargate Resistance has filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in the United States of America.
This recent announcement and declaration throws into doubt the release of Stargate Worlds, with the game still several months away before completion it looks increasingly likely this will become yet another defunct Stargate games release. However fans do not need to fear the development studio FireSky has announced it will continue to support Stargate Resistance.
Here is the official Statement from the studio:
Hi guys, in light of recent events this is the official statement from FireSky:
Cheyenne Mountain’s corporate structure has undergone some dramatic changes in the last few weeks, and that has resulted in various actions such as the filing for Chapter 11. Certain parties believed that was the right thing to do, other parties do not and this is still being evaluated and may be rescinded. Even if the bankruptcy should go through, however, Chapter 11 simply allows a company to restructure its debt to a manageable plan approved by the courts. It does not absolve a company of debt, and it does not shut it down or otherwise affect its daily operations.
This will all be sorted out in the legal and proper manner, and all of us on the development side of things hope it’s done as quickly as possible.
That said, our entire staff is in-house working on upgrades and expansions for Stargate Resistance, and we continue to be motivated and excited by the response we’ve received from our customers.
Stargate Resistance may of launched yesterday however Direct2Drive customers who have pre-ordered the game have been unable to access it.
Customers who paid up front for the FireSky title were left without keys or the option to download the game when it went live. FireSky quickly remedied the situation though, offering temporary keys until D2D is able to offer the game.
Anyone who pre-ordered the game from D2D should email their confirmation number to FireSky at support@firesky.com to obtain a 2 day pass key
