Eidos-Montréal, the Canadian developer behind Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, several Deus Ex games, and more, has confirmed that it’s laying off 97 people.
In a statement released yesterday (January 29), the developer, which is owned by Embracer Group, blamed the “global economic context” as well as the “challenges” of the games industry and Embracer’s enormous restructuring program for the layoffs. Embracer’s restructuring began last year and saw over 900 people laid off by the end of September 2023. This rose even further before the end of the year.
