Trilogy falls into administration

Trilogy Logistics has fallen into administration, MCV can reveal – with unconfirmed reports surfacing that Gem has already negotiated a double-quick buyout of the Northamptonshire firm’s assets.

Trilogy has suffered from a difficult year, following the fall-cum-acquisition of exclusive publishing partner Midway.

MCV revealed last week that Ubisoft had ended its exclusive deal with the firm – which came after the collapse of a proposed deal with The Producers.

However, there could be light at the end of the tunnel, MCV understands – with sources informing us that Essex-based Gem is allegedly set to swoop for the company.

That would mean the acquisition of accounts including 505 Games, as well as Trilogy’s Northamptonshire site – and, of course, the rescue of jobs in the tough Christmas period.

Gem refused to comment when contacted by MCV, whilst Trilogy could not be reached at the time of writing.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
