In a confirmation sent to IGN, it was revealed that 14 employees have been let go from Airtight Games this week.
Airtight Games has developed Soul Fjord, Quantum Conundrum, Dark Void, and Murdered: Soul Suspect. It was also the studio that Kim Swift recently left before moving to Amazon Game Studios.
"We regret to confirm that we have laid off 14 staff members yesterday afternoon as part of a necessary restructuring," Airtight's Jim Deal told IGN. "This restructuring is part of the normal ebb and flow of game production. Existing projects are on schedule and Airtight Games is actively seeking partners for exciting upcoming projects."
A Square Enix representative added, “Airtight Games is a valued partner of Square Enix and we hope staff affected find jobs soon. We have been assured Murdered: Soul Suspect’s timeline to launch is unaffected and the core team is continuing to work towards shipping in June.”
