Overview
- Eidos-Montréal said Monday it eliminated 124 jobs across production and support and confirmed the departure of studio head David Anfossi after 19 years.
- The company cited changing project needs and said a leadership transition plan is underway, but it did not disclose severance terms or name a successor.
- This is the third straight year of cuts at the studio, following 97 layoffs in 2024 and 75 in 2025 for an estimated total of about 296 roles.
- The developer has not shipped a new original game since Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy in 2021 and has lately worked as a co-developer on Xbox’s Fable and Grounded 2.
- Reporting has tied the downsizing to canceled or stalled projects, including a 2024 Deus Ex cancellation and a fresh claim that a long-running original game was recently scrapped.
