Probably because many of them are being transferred to the Zelda team instead.

Nah, they're just co-developping it(Botw). They'll still be with Monolith Soft for their next project whatever it is another Xeno game or a new IP :P

Im not so sure since future Zelda games will probably be as big or bigger than BOTW. They need people and they wont just let anyone work on it.

Cool. Maybe they'll get enough manpower to work on two projects at the same time?
They've been suporting Team Zelda for two projects in a row now, maybe that's the new standart going forward.
Or is this just hiring for their next project? It's pretty common for studios to lay off a lot of employees between projects, so maybe they're just rehiring?

They need to make another game like Xenoblade Chronicles. Still the best game of the last decade imo.

Best J RPG studio? By which metric? Metacritic or sales matric?

 

On topic. It's expected. They expressed to grow like Bethesda in one interview.

Agreed!

@OP: this is great news. Monolith is one of the most talented studios around. With more staff maybe they can turn out games with more frequency.

Still need to play Xenoblade Chronicles (may never get too ) and then XCX. Both been sitting on my shelf, but I just don't have the time to sink 150+ hours into them :/

Oh yeah, such a time sink.

How about a deal? I'll play Lost Odyssey and you'll play Xenoblade Chronicles by the end of 2016? Xbox/Nintendo pact?
