Overview
- Behaviour Interactive, which confirmed layoffs Wednesday, said reduced demand for mobile and casual external-development projects drove the cuts.
- The company is winding down remaining contract work for outside publishers, the kind of assignments it has handled for Disney, EA, Nintendo, Tencent, and NetEase.
- The reduction comes less than a month after Behaviour bought 7 Days to Die studio The Fun Pimps.
- Affected staff began sharing the news on social media, including senior animator Jonathan Veiga, who said he was let go from the Dead by Daylight team.
- As context, Behaviour reported about 1,200 employees in March 2026 across offices in Canada, the Netherlands, and the U.K., after cutting up to 95 roles and closing Midwinter Entertainment in 2024.
