10 Chambers (GTFO, Den of Wolves) restructures and lays off numerous employees
, by Thibaut
Although GTFO was a hit when it was first released in December 2019, its development studio, 10 Chambers, is now in trouble. So much so that emergency measures have been taken to try to turn things around.
The Swedish company confirmed in a statement that it has cut "a significant number" of jobs in order to ensure its survival and the launch of its next game, Den of Wolves.
"We can confirm that we are carefully reviewing our way of working and the organization of the studio to ensure that Den of Wolves becomes the game it deserves to be.
Unfortunately, this involves a significant restructuring of the studio, which will affect a large number of positions, including those of several co-founders of the studio.
We recognize that these changes are difficult and are approaching them with care. Out of respect for all those involved, we will not comment on individual situations. We remain focused on the vision for Den of Wolves."
Earlier this week, co-founder Hjalmar Vikström announced his departure after 10 years with the studio.
