PlayStation-backed Deviation Games has reportedly laid off as many as 90 employees.
That’s according to VGC “sources” and personal announcements shared on LinkedIn which describe a “difficult situation” that “forced” the layoffs.
“A bunch of my colleagues and friends were laid off from Deviation Games today,” wrote Christopher Berry, while software engineer Kyle Perras added: “my studio recently ran into a difficult situation and was forced to make a number of layoffs which I was a part of”.
“Today we add a new piece of life experience – being laid off!” added Miki G. “Thank you to my former colleagues at Deviation Games. It’s been a pleasure collabing with you and learning with you.”
“Unfortunately, I was affected by the layoffs today at Deviation Games. I am looking for roles in production,” added Jared B. “To my former colleagues at Deviation: it was an honour and a privilege to work with so many talented individuals. I will miss you all very much.”
