Deck Nine Games Reduces Staff by 20%

The developer behind Life Is Strange: True Colors, Deck Nine Games, has announced a reduction of its workforce by 20%. According to reports by Eurogamer, around 30 employees have been affected by the decision. In a statement released on X, the studio explained, "The gaming industry's worsening market conditions have impacted Deck Nine, much like many other companies in the sector." The statement continued, "We have made the tough decision to lay off 20% of our staff, which includes incredibly talented and dedicated individuals who have made significant contributions during their time at Deck Nine Games. This decision was not taken lightly." This marks the second round of layoffs for Deck Nine Games, following a similar reduction in May last year that resulted in the loss of 30 jobs, as reported by Game Developer.
