Around 300 staff at MindsEye developers Build A Rocket Boy are reportedly at risk of being laid off as the studio considers relaunching the troubled game.
Game director Leslie Benzies allegedly told the staff that the studio would somehow rebound from its troubles and relaunch MindsEye, while blaming internal and external saboteurs for the studio's issues.
At-risk emails have been issued to 300 UK-based workers and an undisclosed number of staff at PlayFusion, a studio acquired by BARB in December 2024.
This marks the second time this year that the studio behind MindsEye has faced potential layoffs, with a previous round of layoffs occurring in February and the challenges of relaunching a game amidst internal turmoil remain uncertain.
