Annapurna Interactive, a video game publisher and developer branch of Annapurna Pictures, has been rocked by an unforeseen turn of events, with the entire staff resigning following a recent conflict.

Twenty-four Annapurna Interactive staffers have left the company as plans for the Megan Ellison-studio to spinoff the division with the former department’s President Nathan Gary fell apart. The intent of the spinoff was to have Annapurna Interactive expanding further into large-budget games.

Bloomberg reports that the entire staff of Annapurna Interactive, the gaming division of Megan Ellison’s Annapurna, has resigned after failing to convince Ellison to let them spin off its games division into a new company. IGN is corroborating the report.
