A number of GAME and Gamestation stores have already closed following the GAME Group’s entry into administration this morning, reports MCV.
A number of stores including the flagship Gamestation store in Birmingam are believed to have shut up shop, with confirmed closures expected to reach the hundreds as administrators look to trim the business with the hope of selling off what remains.
GAME’s Oxford Street Store in London is reported to still be trading.
The GAME and Gamestation websites have also shut down, with a message confirming administrators have taken over.
