Ready at Dawn, the developer of The Order: 1866 and the Lone Echo VR games, has reportedly been closed by parent company Meta. An Android Central report says the studio's closure comes as part of an effort to meet budget reductions, reported in July, at the company's Reality Labs VR division.

Ready at Dawn was founded in 2003 and developed games for various PlayStation platforms until shifting focus to VR development with the 2017 release of Lone Echo for the Oculus Rift. A standalone multiplayer spinoff called Echo VR followed, but despite being a notable success in the VR market it was closed in August 2023, ostensibly so the studio could "focus on our next project." 

But there was no next project: Ready at Dawn's most recent release was Lone Echo 2, which came out in 2021, the year after the studio was acquired by Meta.
