PlayStation has conducted another round of layoffs, this time impacting the Visual Arts team as well its Malaysian studios.
Several now-former employees of PlayStation have taken to LinkedIn to share that they’ve been let go. The roles include lighting, material, environmental, and animation artists. A Naughty Dog alumnus, who’s now at Nvidia, said that those laid off were integral to the development of Uncharted and The Last of Us.
One of them was a senior project manager in Malaysia who worked on Concord and The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered. He said, “It was a tough start of the week for us at PlayStation Studios – Visual Arts. There was a wave of workforce reduction and unfortunately I’m no longer part of the brand.”
