Crystal Dynamics, the studio behind the next instalment in the Tomb Raider franchise, has revealed that another round of layoffs have hit the company, with around 30 people having lost their jobs.
Speaking on this latest round of layoffs, Crystal Dynamics revealed that the cuts have come off the back of a reorganisation at the studio aimed to “optimize the continued development of our flagship Tomb Raider game, as well as shaping the rest of the studio to make new games for the future.”
Crystal deeply thanks all of those impacted for their incredible talent, hard work, and dedication, which helped shape the studio in so many ways. We are committed to offering our fullest resources and support to you during this transition.
