I only know so much, something about switching dev teams/ownership and screwing the original devs but I found an article that claims to know the whole thing.
to save anyone reading this: basically it’s big business boys trying to rat fuck each other with a series of sneaky business moves to acquire shares or maintain operational control… at the expense of creative efforts and next projects. So some (presumably nice, innocent) people got fucked over by corporate greed at the expense of art but likely someone got rich off it.
