The team, known for games such as Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun and Desperados III, revealed that the 15-year production of "ambitious titles" has negatively impacted the well-being of their employees and their families.
"Dedicating the past decade and a half of our lives working on increasingly ambitious games took a heavy personal toll on us and our families. After the release of Shadow Gambit, we decided it was the right time to prioritize our well-being and to pull the brakes instead of signing up for another multi-year production cycle," wrote the team.
The studio noted they will continue supporting their latest release, the stealth-strategy game Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, which was released on August 17th.
Over the next few months, Mimimi Games will gradually downsize its team. Currently, the founders of the team are working to find positions for all members of the studio in other companies. Dominik Abé and Johannes Roth expressed their gratitude to their industry colleagues, publishing companies Kowloon Nights, THQ Nordic, and Daedalic Entertainment, as well as other partners who have supported their team in the past.
"We will be doing everything in our power to support our team, and we are now starting to reach out to our friends in the industry to find suitable new jobs for all Mimimis. If you have open positions and are interested in hiring our amazing talents, please get in touch via hiring@mimimi.games," wrote the team.
