Developers from another game studio were out of work. According to Kotaku, a wave of layoffs took place in all Hangar 13 offices. It is not known exactly how many people were fired. But according to the publication, the unit in Novato suffered the most, which 50 out of 87 employees left.
A representative of 2K, the parent company of Hangar 13, confirmed the cuts in the studio, but did not comment on them in detail. He added that 2K will provide the dismissed with places in other teams, and those for whom there is no place, will help with job searches outside the company.
The layoffs took place against the background of last year’s cancellation of a game codenamed Volt, in the creation of which more than $ 50 million was invested. It is reported that after the closure of the project, many Hangar 13 developers have not found anything to do.
