Bizarre Creations' chances of being bought by another company were shattered today, as Activision issued to the group a recommendation for studio closure. It means the Liverpool-based studio's likelihood of running under a new publisher are near-certainly over. Bizarre staff have indicated they will accept the recommendation, an Activision executive told Develop. Last year the studio housed around 200 staff. Coddy Johnson, Activision Worldwide Studios’ chief operating officer, said the publisher had “looked at all options” before recommending to close the group.
