Microprose, or what remained of the Hunt Valley, Maryland offices that existed in the wake of two acquisitions (first by Hasbro Interactive and then sold to Infogrames as part of another deal with Hasbro Inc.), has been shut down today.

Nancy Bushkin, Atari's VP of corporate communications, confirmed that the offices had been shut down today and that the entire staff of 35 had been let go. According to Bushkin, Hunt Valley, which was being managed by Atari for Infogrames, simply ran out of work - the studio most recently finished up work on D&D Heroes. With no additional work in the near future, Atari decided that it was the right thing to close the studios' doors.
