San Rafael-based Factor 5, best known for Lair and the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron series, has shut its doors, according to a post on the official website from CEO Achim Moller.

Brash Entertainment's bankruptcy is being blamed partially for the closure, as the company had a multi-game deal with Factor 5. Because of this, "the continuation of operations have turned out too great to overcome in the current economic climate," said Moller.

Factor 5 GmbH, based out of Cologne, is not affected by the closure, and the studio promises to reveal it's upcoming projects over the next few months.
