In which case, welcome back and I&#8217;m sorry. Still, Supermassive&#8217;s using traditionally frustrating language to inform the public it&#8217;s laying people off. Take a look:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The games industry remains a challenging and ever-evolving environment. As we adapt our team structure to better align with these changes, we&#8217;ve had to make the very difficult decision to begin a redundancy consultation process where we anticipate losing up to 36 of our colleagues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yeesh. &#8220;We anticipate losing&#8221;\u2014I&#8217;m going to start declining invites by telling people that I anticipate vanishing from their birthday party. I&#8217;m not naive enough (though I&#8217;m perhaps tired enough) to suggest that every single lay off is due to capricious corporate meddling or large-scale acquisitions. However, would it kill for one of these announcements to just say the thing they&#8217;re doing?<\/p>\n<p>In fairness, the choice of language here could simply be due to UK labour laws, which require companies to notify people they&#8217;ll be at-risk of being laid off <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-dark-pictures-anthology-developer-supermassive-games-confirms-layoffs-are-happening\/\">during a consultation period<\/a> that lasts at least 30 days (at layoffs of this size). So maybe I&#8217;ve just had my fill, and am looking too hard into legalese.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement then goes on to clarify that Directive 8020 will be moved to &#8220;the first half of 2026&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>This stands as the second round of layoffs the studio&#8217;s endured\u2014the first of which happened in February 2024, shortly after its founders <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-brothers-who-founded-until-dawn-studio-supermassive-step-down-together-after-16-years\/\">stepped down after 16 years at the company<\/a>.
