Nacon Postpones March 4 Showcase to May After Insolvency Filing

The delay follows last week’s insolvency move tied to Bigben’s failed bond repayment, as the publisher prioritizes support for near‑term releases.

Overview

  • Nacon confirmed its Nacon Connect presentation, originally set for March 4, will now take place in May, saying it wants future announcements to land with full impact.
  • The company stated its announced releases remain on schedule, citing GreedFall: The Dying World (targeting March 12), Dragonkin: The Banished, and Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss among upcoming titles.
  • Nacon attributed its liquidity shortfall to issues at majority shareholder Bigben Interactive after an unexpected refusal by Bigben’s banking pool prevented a planned partial bond repayment.
  • The publisher said the insolvency filing seeks court‑supervised reorganization to renegotiate debts, continue operations, and protect jobs while it concentrates resources on current games.
  • Coverage notes uncertainty over long‑term outcomes, with liquidation described as a possibility if restructuring fails and multiple owned studios potentially affected, though Nacon says it remains confident.
