Following the cancellation of their live service project back in January as part of Sony’s love-hate relationship with live service games, they let go of a number of workers. Now, following the release of Days Gone Remastered, it looks like they’re letting go of even more.
Originally, this started as a report from Jason Schreier on Bluesky, but since then, it’s been confirmed by Bend itself on Twitter.
Now, they never cited the number of affected staff, but Schreier’s 40 person mark seems to make sense. The remaining staff are presumably shifting gears into this next game… whatever that may be. Regardless of what it is, let’s hope it’s not a live service.
What do you think? Are you still optimistic in whatever Bend’s cooking up? Let us know below!
