Affected devs:
- Arkane Austin (closed)
- Tango Gameworks (closed)
- Alpha Dog Studios (closed)
- Roundhouse Games (absorbed into ZeniMax Online Studios)
These changes are grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games and beloved worlds which you have nurtured over many decades.
Just a reminder that buying this game no longer supports the devs
Sail the seas friends
allowing the deal to happen was a big mistake.
I wonder how many promises Microsoft made to the FCC and other regulators about how their mergers and acquisitions wouldn’t result in layoffs?
ooh, EA has competition
This is a meme at this point right? I can’t remember the last time EA actually did anything remotely as bad.
EA has been famous for buying up game studios only to shut them down shortly after back in the 90s
@SuperSaiyanSwag @Sam_Bass yep. Its more like “ubisoft got competition”
Honestly all these tech layoffs could really come bite back publishers and the big tech in the near future.
Theres a lot new talent for competitors to snatch and fraction of these developers might even form up new studios to make the next big thing.
