35 staff members at Digic Pictures, an esteemed game developer, have been laid off in an effort to reduce costs. Digic Pictures is renowned for creating the massive hits “The Witcher” and “Kings of Lorn.” The task of releasing staff members will be handled by the Human Resources Department. The layoffs are set to take place all through the summer.
CEO and co-founder of Digic Pictures, Laszlo Gyori, issued a statement concerning the layoffs. “We are deeply sorry about the layoffs, and the decision was taken with great thought and long discussions. We thank these staff members for their contribution, and the excellent jobs they have done at Digic Pictures.”
Although the layoffs are only taking place this summer, it is still an upsetting news for those at Digic Pictures and the entire gaming industry. In news outlets around the world, articles have been written about the ongoing economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Digic Pictures hopes that the future will bring some form of relief to those affected by the layoffs. The company has been putting efforts to reduce costs while ensuring business continuity and, ultimately, creating more quality gaming experiences. It is with hope that the current situation at Digic Pictures can be passed without too much damage.
