Eidos-Montréal is experiencing a serious crisis and is fighting for survival.
According to journalist Tom Henderson, Embracer commissioned the studio to develop a game based on "The Lord of the Rings" universe. It was supposed to be a card game with a story campaign in the style of Telltale Games, but the project was canceled.
Later, Hideo Kojima asked Eidos-Montréal to help with the development of OD. Everything was going well until Kojima suggested that the 20 employees working on the project move to Japan. The studio refused this request, and the collaboration ended.
The cancellation of projects and the termination of the partnership have greatly affected the studio. The future of Eidos-Montréal remains uncertain.
