Following the departure from Sega and becoming an independent studio, Relic Entertainment took to LinkedIn and announced that the company had faced "difficult times" and had to let go of some of its employees.

"Earlier today we shared details with Relicans about a layoff. Letting people go was not an easy decision, and was made solely with the goal of providing Relic the best possible chance to survive in an increasingly volatile industry," the studio stated. "It does not in any way reflect the expertise, passion, or character of any of the impacted employees."

The studio didn't disclose the number of affected people but Robyn Smale, External Development Producer at Relic, shared on their LinkedIn page that the company lost 41 employees.

As always, the company promised to provide downsized people with a severance package, "extended benefits, and outplacement support options."
