Key Disco Elysium devs have reportedly ‘involuntarily’ exited the sequel.
titled “The Dissolution of the ZA/UM Cultural Association”, Martin Luiga, who served as an editor on the acclaimed Disco Elysium claimed that writer and designer Robert Kurvitz, writer Helen Hidnpere and lead art and design developer Aleksander Rostov have all left the company.
“I would note that neither Kurvitz, Hindpere nor Rostov are working there since the end of last year and their leaving the company was involuntary,” wrote Luiga.The post also announced the end of the ZA/UM Cultural Association. This collective was a distinct entity to the developer ZA/UM which would go on to develop Disco Elysium, although both the ZA/UM Cultural Association and developer ZA/UM shared much of the same personnel until now.
“I find that the organization was successful overall and most of the mistakes that were made were contingent, determined by the sociocultural conditions we were thrown into,” said Luiga. “I still encourage people to organize, and I would say that one of the qualities that the ZA/UM cultural organization sorely lacked was pretty much any formal structure.”
This has caused concern for the planned sequel to Disco Elysium, which was in early development. Luiga claimed on Twitter that while the sequel may take a “shit ton of time,” that progress on the new game was “sweet enough.”Disco Elysium was released in 2019 and was met with incredible critical praise. It currently holds a 91 on the reviews aggregator
