Gaming accessory maker and publisher Nacon files for insolvency


French AA gaming developer and accessory manufacturer Nacon has filed for insolvency after its majority shareholder Bigben failed to make a loan repayment, the company said in a press release. “To date, the company reports available assets do not allow it to meet its liabilities,” Nacon wrote. The objective with insolvency, it said, was to allow “continued operation, protect employees and maintain jobs while renegotiating with its creditors.”

Nacon is behind the games Styx: Blades of Greed and was set to publish Terminator: Survivors before that title was delayed. It published Hell is Us last year to some praise, but Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown was buggy on release and failed to find much of an audience. The company will stream its next Nacon Connect presentation on March 4, and will supposedly show off some new games and footage for previously revealed games like Endurance Motorsport Series and Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss.

The company also makes hardware like controllers and headsets and racing sim accessories via its Revosim brand. Those products never really caught on with mainstream gamers but did have some success with the pro gaming crowd.

With Nacon’s insolvency, the future of those games and accessories is now in question. A court will decide on the company’s insolvency request at a hearing in early March, but in the meantime, trading of its shares is suspended.
