2K Games (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., operating under the name 2K China (previously 2K Shanghai), was a video game development company headquartered in Shanghai, China.

History

Founded on 9 May 2006 as a subsidiary of 2K, 2K Shanghai was created to leverage the rapidly growing gaming industry within China. Early initiatives involved localizing Civilization IV for the Chinese market, creating new intellectual properties, and serving as a central point for sales, marketing, development, and outsourcing activities throughout China.

On 6 November 2015, Take-Two Interactive, the parent organization of 2K, decided to shut down 2K China due to financial concerns related to the ongoing development of Borderlands Online. This closure resulted in the cancellation of Borderlands Online and led to the termination of approximately 150 employees across 2K China and its Hangzhou branch. Meanwhile, the Chengdu office was rebranded as 2K Chengdu and remained operational, focusing on quality assurance tasks.
