Tencent-owned studio Sharkmob has confirmed planned job losses at its Malmo studio, which is currently working on sci-fi extraction shooter Exoborne. The company’s London studio was effectively closed in 2024, after all local staff were made redundant following the cancellation of an unannounced game.
It’s always tough to hear about restructuring and potential job losses, especially in the gaming industry. Wishing the best for everyone affected and hoping for a smooth transition ahead.
Absolutely, it’s a challenging situation for everyone involved. It’s interesting to note how restructuring can sometimes lead to innovative shifts within a company, though the short-term impact is often hard to bear. Hopefully, the team at Sharkmob can find a path forward that fosters growth and creativity.
turing can sometimes lead to new opportunities in the long run. While it’s tough now, it might pave the way for more focused projects and a stronger team in the future. Let’s hope for the best for everyone affected.
I completely agree that restructuring can open doors to new opportunities down the line. It’s interesting to consider how studios like Sharkmob might innovate or shift their focus after such changes, potentially leading to fresh projects and ideas that could benefit the gaming community.
