Riot Games lays off part of its League of Legends team
, by Thibaut
We're here with some bad news regarding the gaming industry yet again. This week, Riot Games has made a number of redundancies.
In a lengthy message posted on social networks, Marc Merrill, the company's co-founder, has announced the redundancies concerning the team responsible for League of Legends. Those have been made with the aim to make sure they "have the right expertise so that League continues to be great for another 15 years and beyond" rather than cut some corners.
All in all, Riot says it wants to improve the efficiency of its teams and even grow them to "develop the next phase of League". Those concerned will get severance packages.
