CCP Lays Offs 20% of Workforce
Today CCP announced that they will be laying off 20% of their workforce as part of a reorganization effort to focus more on Eve Online and DUST 514 stating,
Developing EVE expansions, DUST 514 and World of Darkness has stretched our resources too thin.
While for the most part Eve Online and DUST 514 will not be affected by this, World of Darkness development will continue with a significantly reduced team. While CCP stated that World of Darkness is definitely not dead, it is not at the point where they need to dedicated a large amount of resources to it yet.
CCP also mentioned that while Eve Online is in good health, with subscriptions numbers higher than they were this time last year, they did say over the last two months the numbers have slid down from their summer peak. Which can be attributed to the whole Incarna expansion fiasco.
