Take Two confirms layoffs, Primarily Impacting Non-Development Positions

[Satoru]

Take-Two, the parent company of GTA developer Rockstar Games, is undergoing a round of layoffs. Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier, who was first to report, said the cuts are coming from Take-Two's Private Division label "and other divisions."

A spokesperson for Take-Two, Alan Lewis, said the impact on development teams specifically is "minimal," suggesting the layoffs stem from non-development positions. Lewis said the move will help Take-Two "better align our organization with our long-term priorities."

For those not up on it, Private Division is their independent publishing arm, its only been around for a little while. As far as I can tell the most well known thing they currently have on offer is Kerbal 2.

Kerbal 2 is apparently a semi-shitshow as well. Lot's of features from the original game are not present, stuff that's actually relevant to the game. It's the same game downgraded in a prettier package for now.
