Until Dawn remaster developers face layoffs a month before release. Ballistic Moon employees report job cuts
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Until Dawn will soon return in an updated format. It seems the studio no longer requires the services of some specialists.
The Until Dawn remaster is scheduled for release on October 4, 2024. The horror game will return in an updated format not only on PC, but also on PlayStation 5 consoles. On PC, this project requires PSN services, so it cannot be purchased in many regions, including Kazakhstan.
Troubling reports have recently begun coming from employees of development studio Ballistic Moon. Some were reportedly laid off a month before the game’s launch.
Ballistic Moon has not yet officially acknowledged the layoffs, but at least two former developers shared news of their dismissal on a professional social network.
For example, Cassy Cornish wrote:
“Like so many others in this wonderful but turbulent industry, I have unfortunately been made redundant from my role as a Junior Game Designer at Ballistic Moon.”
Harry Williams shared: “After two exciting years working on the wonderful Until Dawn 2024 at Ballistic Moon, I am unfortunately being made redundant from my role as a Technical Designer.”
