"Toxic" Workplace Allegations Lead to Studio Splits and Solo Development

The Open Roads Team has split from Fullbright after allegations of a "toxic work culture" were made against co-founder Steve Gaynor. The team will continue to work with Annapurna Interactive, but will no longer be connected to Fullbright.
