What happened to the original creators, Tarsier Studios?

I still don't understand why they didn't give the original studio the development of the game they created.

My same question. I guess the answer is the same as always: "money".

edit: turns out I was wrong. the actual reason was that Tarsier Studios was acquired by Embracer Group, but the rights to Little Nightmares intellectual property still belongs to Bandai Namco.

Bandai Namco didn't give it to Tarsier Studios because Tarsier Studios refused to work on another Little Nightmares game, the stated reason being that after two games, the story is complete and there's nothing more to add.

♥♥♥♥ my life… I just bouble-checked this, and it turns out that wasn't the reason at all! Tarsier Studios was bought out by Embracer Group (yes, the one and only), but the IP was still owned by Bandai Namco, so they simply couldn't work on the sequel even if they wanted to. and it seems that they do, because their new game Reanimal looks more like LN3 than LN3.

Thats not true. Tarsier didnt want to work on additional LN titles, from their perspective the story was finished and thus left Bandai. So Bandai had no choice but to hire different team to do LN3.

- their next game, Reanimal, looks identical to Little Nightmares. clearly, Tarsier Studios were interested in making another one.
- the Little Nightmares 3 that we're getting is not a direct sequel, so Bandai Namco obviously isn't mandating it to be one.
