Crytek Restructures Workforce, Puts Crysis 4 Development on Hold
The German game development firm Crytek has announced it is reducing its workforce by 15%, impacting around 60 individuals within its development and shared services divisions.
In a statement shared via social media platforms, the studio also revealed that Crysis 4 has been put on hold as a result of this decision.
“This was not an easy choice to make, as we genuinely value the dedication of our skilled teams,” the company expressed.
“After pausing the development of the upcoming Crysis title in Q3 2024, we have been attempting to reallocate developers to Hunt: Showdown 1896.”
“While Hunt: Showdown 1896 is still in development, Crytek cannot proceed as it has been and maintain fiscal viability. This is despite ongoing attempts to minimize expenses and reduce operational costs.”
