Avalanche Studios Group (known for the Just Cause and Rage 2 series) has officially closed its Liverpool, UK office. The company announced this on its official website almost two months after the initial announcement of the upcoming changes.
As a result, 31 employees lost their jobs. This is part of a broader wave of layoffs in the gaming industry, where thousands of specialists have already been laid off since the beginning of 2025.
The exceptional talent, passion, and dedication of each employee have impacted all of our projects. We are sincerely grateful for their dedication and invaluable contribution to Avalanche Studios Group.
Our top priority now is to support our colleagues during this transition and continue creating great games for our players.
Avalanche management announced plans to restructure the company in September. Layoffs may also occur in the Stockholm and Malmö offices.
