Asmodee has acquired the Cthulhu: Death May Die board game franchise in the wake of previous owner CMON's financial difficulties.
Following an incredibly bruising year for CMON in which it announced losses of nearly $7 million, the company has been selling off IP in an attempt to halt its freefall. The incredibly popular Cthulhu: Death May Die (designed by Eric M. Lang and Rob Daviau, who have some of the best board games on their CV) is the latest casualty, sold to tabletop giant Asmodee. That means the publisher will now "fully replace CMON" in overseeing fulfillment of the franchise's latest installment, Cthulhu: Death May Die - Forbidden Reaches.
