We have even more unfortunate news to share today. In addition to this week's layoffs and studio closures at Ubisoft and Sweet Bandits, layoffs have also hit Torn Banner Studios and IllFonic.
Torn Banner Studios is perhaps best known for their work on the two Chivalry titles and their Early Access release of No More Room in Hell 2. Yesterday, a message was shared on LinkedIn by CEO and creative director Steve Piggott stating that the studio had to eliminate some positions.
Today, I want to share some unfortunate news for Torn Banner Studios. We have made the very difficult decision to undergo a restructure and reduce some of our talented workforce.(...)
Employees affected by this restructuring will be receiving severance packages and can keep their work computers. We'll also be working hard to help people find positions at other studios where we can.

IllFonic also shared news of layoffs today. A statement from IllFonic's CEO and co-founder Charles Brungardt says that an undisclosed number of cuts were made today.
Today we had to accept the harsh reality that the state of the industry has impacted us here at IllFonic.
It is with the heaviest of hearts that cuts to our team had to be made today as we re-aligned to a refined strategy.
There is a lot of talent in this group and if you or your team is hiring, please reach out so people can be connected to open roles.
