| trunkswd said: I spent over an hour discussing the current state of the gaming industry and all the massive layoffs. There have been around 7,800 laid off in just the first 2 months of 2024. This compares 10,500 laid off in all of 2023 and 8,500 laid off in 2022. |
It was only 10,500 in 2023?
Didn't MS alone at one point layoff like 10,000+ people.
A good portion of that was from xbox studios?
I tried to google and the only thing I really found was : https://publish.obsidian.md/vg-layoffs/Archive/2023
That seems to support the 10,500 number for 2023.
However I wouldn't be surprised if actual numbers where higher than these estimates.
