Humble Games' parent company, Ziff Davis, reportedly tried to sell the game publisher twice before rolling out mass layoffs and is now apparently turning to a third-party company to help "manage the slate" going forward.
Layoffs were first reported yesterday by Humble Games team members on social media, and the "restructuring of operations" was later confirmed in an official statement that called the decision "difficult but necessary." This apparently comes after those attempted sales of the publisher, according to a new report from Aftermath, which claims to have obtained a recording of a meeting in which the president of Ziff Davis' technology and shopping division, Steve Horowitz, spoke to the Humble Games team.
