Sony has announced that Evolution Studio, the team behind Driveclub, has axed 55 jobs. After Sony announced their decision to the employees effected, they released the following statement:
“We will be looking to relocate team members throughout the studios, but unfortunately some redundancies will be necessary and in those cases we will assist staff in any way we can.”
While the news is sad, it isn’t surprising seeing how many difficulties Driveclub has had including poor sales and a failure to deliver on even it’s most basic promises. What do you think of Sony’s decision to scale the studio back? Did Evolution get a fair shake?
