Activision has announced Prototype developer Radical Entertainment will be affected with a considerable amount of layoffs. The studio will now no longer develop its own titles, but instead provide support existing IPs within Activision. “Although we made a substantial investment in the Prototype IP, it did not find a broad commercial audience,” said the publisher in a statement. “Radical is a very talented team of developers, however, we have explored various options for the studio, including a potential sale of the business, and have made a difficult conclusion through the consultation process that the only remaining option is a significant reduction in staff.” ![]()
Radical had said it envisioned Prototype 2 selling upwards of four million units, but the game must have achieved a minor fraction of that for the studio to get closed down. Cheat Code Central wishes the best of luck to all those affected by the lay-offs. By Zak Islam |
