GAME Sweden has filed for bankruptcy.
The retailer currently has 31 stores across Sweden and one in Norway. All are expected to close.
GAME Stores Group Sweden AB, which operates the retailer’s Swedish division, was acquired by Nordic Games in 2012 following GAME’s UK administration, and is described by the firm as “one of the two leading specialty retailers in Nordic”. The company is believed to employ 127 members of staff.
GAME UK survived, of course, and now operates under GAME Digital – a different company to that in charge of the Scandinavian stores. As such the Swedish arm’s closure will not have any effect on the UK business.
The full press release confirming GAME Sweden’s closure can be found below, although an English translation doesn’t appear to be available.
