Tomb Raider and Perfect Dark devs Crystal Dynamics cut staff, promising that current projects are unaffected
Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Tomb Raider, Soul Reaver and Perfect Dark developers Crystal Dynamics are laying off 17 “talented team members” in order “to better align our current business needs and the studio’s future success”. According to a social media statement, they “did not take this decision lightly”. Oh, and “this change does not alter our current project plans.”
It’s not clear who exactly has lost their jobs, but going by this Xitter post, senior combat designer Mark Vernon is one of them. “Call me Mark S the way I just got severed, from employment,” he writes. Best of luck finding your way to the black elevator hall, Mark V. (If you haven’t watched Severance, I promise this reference is more hopeful than it sounds.)
