If rumours are to be believed, US publisher Electronic Arts has told Pandemic Studios’ Brisbane-based Australian office that it has been “set free” from its ties to the company.

Kotaku reports that the Destroy All Humans developer has been allowed to retain its original IP, staff and equipment, and is now free to seek a new publisher for its current projects.

MCV's sister magazine Develop has the full story – click here to take a look.
