Studio Abandons A Bunch Of Games As It Goes All In On Smite 2
Briefly

HiRez Studios is making significant changes by reallocating resources from some of its games, including Smite, Rogue Company, and Paladins. Recently, the company laid off around 70 employees, which has led to halted large content updates for these games. While servers will remain functional, no more extensive updates are planned. President Stewart Chisam expressed regret over the layoffs, emphasizing the tough environment in the gaming industry. The message shared via Discord mentioned the company's commitment to maintain current games as long as possible, despite the changes.
"We know this is an exceptionally difficult time to find work in the industry, which makes it even more devastating to have let go of so many loyal and talented developers."
"Smite 1, Paladins and Rogue Company servers will remain available for the foreseeable future, but no further major updates are currently planned for these games."
