@hayhor So 670 jobs out ~13 000 means they cut significantly less than the competitors. Also if you look closely the cuts were targeting certain studios & projects like the new Star Wars FPS game that was in development that support my theory of losing the IP license to Epic.
@Airish85They didn't lose the IP license. Respawn is still making the next Jedi game. The SW game that was cut was an entirely new Mandalorian game that was in very early development. Disney is specifically targeting fortnite. They already have skins for SW and other Disney stuff. Now fortnite will probably have modes and stuff that are related. Who knows. They invested a lot in Epic.
