"Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics has announced a new round of layoffs, its second this year, citing "evolving business conditions". The game maker, which had been working on Microsoft's cancelled Perfect Dark reboot, is cutting an unspecified number of jobs to ensure its "long-term health". The studio confirmed that the latest round of layoffs did not affect the future of the next Tomb Raider game."
""This decision was not made lightly. It was necessary, however, to ensure the long-term health of our studio and core creative priorities in a continually shifting market. "To those impacted - we recognize and thank you for your hard work, talent, and passion. We are committed to offering the full extent of support and resources at our disposal during this transition.""
Crystal Dynamics announced a new round of layoffs, marking its second reduction this year, and cited evolving business conditions as the reason. The studio did not disclose the number of positions impacted and emphasized that the cuts aim to ensure long-term health and sustain core creative priorities. The layoffs followed Microsoft cancelling the Perfect Dark reboot and closing The Initiative. Crystal Dynamics affirmed that development of the next Tomb Raider remains unaffected. The studio previously let go of 17 employees in March and said those cuts were necessary for future success. Crystal Dynamics is a subsidiary of Embracer Group.
