At the same time, several developers from 2K Czech were retiring. These developers decided to form a new studio, which became Vatra Games. In July 2012, four months after the March release of Silent Hill: Downpour, Kuju Entertainment Limited terminated its contract with Vatra Games. In September 2012, Vatra Games was declared bankrupt.{{Cite web |last=Baird |first=Scott |date=2019-10-14 |title=We're Never Getting A New Silent Hill (Here's Why) |url=https://www.thegamer.com/were-never-getting-a-new-silent-hill-heres-why/ |access-date=2022-11-13 |website=TheGamer |language=en-US |archive-date=13 November 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221113085616/https://www.thegamer.com/were-never-getting-a-new-silent-hill-heres-why/ |url-status=live }}
