# Hell is Us and Styx publisher Nacon files for insolvency

**[Game Developer](https://daily.dev/sources/gamedeveloper)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

French publisher and peripheral manufacturer Nacon has filed for insolvency before the Commercial Court of Lille Metropole, initiating judicial reorganisation proceedings. The move follows parent company Bigben Group's failure to partially repay a bond loan after an unexpected refusal from its banking pool. Nacon, which publishes titles like Hell is Us and Styx: Blades of Greed, employs over 1,000 workers across 25 subsidiaries including 16 development studios. The reorganisation process can last up to 18 months, during which existing liabilities will be frozen. A court hearing is expected in early March 2026.
