Splitgate developer 1047 Games has announced a “small” round of layoffs at the studio following Splitgate 2’s big launch earlier this month. As part of the staff reduction, co-founders Ian Proulx and Nicholas Bagamian are forgoing salaries for the time being, the company announced in a LinkedIn post.
“We’re still perfecting the Splitgate 2 gameplay experience in response to community feedback, and we are redirecting resources to build the best game for our players,” the developer said. “We are sad to see our teammates go, and we are actively working to help them secure new opportunities.”
Proulx and Bagamian are forgoing salaries as the studio said it plans to “lock in to deliver the next phase of the project.”
