Staff lay-offs at Big Huge Games
After the revelation late last month that THQ was set to either close or sell off Rise of Nations developer Big Huge Games, more bad news surrounding the developer has begun circulating, regarding lay-offs that have hit studio.
THQ have confirmed the lay-offs, but say they will continue with their announced plans for the developer, as a spokesperson relays the bad news:
“Yesterday, some of the staff were notified that they were not going to be part of the future direction of the studio. We are not providing exact headcounts at this time.
“We continue to pursue a sale of Big Huge Games.”
