Interplay has reopened operations after being shut down earlier this week by the state of California for not providing its workers with compensation insurance and pay checks, according to The Orange County Register and CV&G.

CEO Herve Caen told the reporters that he has acquired the necessary workers' compensation insurance to allow employees to return to work.

In related news, Titus Interactive, majority shareholder for Interplay, has declared bankruptcy. Trading of Titus shares was halted by the Tribunal of Commerce of Meaux. The company's finances, plus those of subsidiary companies Sofra Games and Avalon France will be reviewed. After this period of review, Titus will continue negotiations on the possible sale of assets until October 6 this year.
