“We just finished [X-Men Destiny] with [Activision Blizzard Inc.] that got completed,”
“We had another project lined up that had been in the works for months, which had been green-lit and at the final second, at the high corporate level, the project got canceled.
“We don’t know why. Probably something to do with the publisher on their side, but that resulted in us having too many people so we had to do a layoff.”
Mays said that the studio is having contract negotiations on a number of other projects and if these come through, they'll rehire the people they've had to let go.“We had another project lined up that had been in the works for months, which had been green-lit and at the final second, at the high corporate level, the project got canceled.
