Overview
- Iron Galaxy, which disclosed the cuts Friday on LinkedIn, said it is reducing its company size as it moves to a new structure.
- The studio did not share a headcount, though a source told Kotaku the total could reach about 90, and reporters said the company did not immediately comment further.
- The new cuts follow a 2025 reduction of 66 roles that leaders called a last resort, with the company now saying last year's staffing level remained unsustainable.
- The company said players now consume games in different ways and publishers use tougher funding criteria, signaling a tighter focus on co-development and porting work.
- The layoffs include communications lead David Dague, underscoring the wider industry downturn that has fueled mass job losses since 2022.
