The layoffs at Rocksteady, primarily impacting the QA department, reflect the studio's response to the disappointing performance of its latest title, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
According to reports, Rocksteady's QA team was reduced from 33 to 15 members in a month due to the restructuring driven by the game's poor commercial performance.
Warner Bros. Games reported a $200 million loss from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, indicating severe repercussions from the game's failure in the competitive market.
Despite hopes pinned on a live service model, the game struggled significantly, peaking at only 13,459 concurrent players on Steam, highlighting its poor reception.
