The hero shooter Gigantic is already in a crisis before its release. The studio is running out of money, and employees are being laid off.
Gigantic was actually supposed to be released in 2015 for Windows 10 and Xbox One. The date could not be met and employees had to be laid off at the end of last year. Now there are further “significant layoffs.” And this will, of course, have an impact on the game, as they say. After all, key personnel for important systems are now missing.
As a reason for the layoffs, developer Motiga states that they are not financially capable of maintaining the entire studio. Motiga wants to negotiate aggressively with partners and investors to secure funding. They hope to rehire the laid-off employees as quickly as possible, as stated in a letter to the fans.
