Such a shame. They did a really good job with Hitman, IMO. Best of luck to all affected.

Man that sucks.

For those affected, Guerrilla Games is hiring.

This sucks. Now many families will be problematic again.

Lay off half their staff and only concentrate on Hitman games? Yep. Good luck with that.

yea the new hitman game was one of the most visually impressive games ive seen in a while. that studio seems to have super solid art direction, kane and lynch 2 looked great as well. sorry to hear it, was one of my favorite studios in terms of the projects they pump out.

It sounds like the fools who pushed unrealistic sales goals are keeping their jobs while the people who created probably one of the most underrated games of the last few years in Hitman are getting the axe.

I hope everyone lands on their feet.
