Sega announced<\/a> on Thursday that it\u2019s canceling multiplayer shooter Hyenas<\/em><\/a>. Citing \u201clower profitability of the European region,\u201d the company said it would also shutter other unannounced titles under development.<\/p>\n

According to Sega, it will \u201cimplement reduction of various fixed expenses\u201d at Hyenas<\/em> developer Creative Assembly. Unfortunately, that sounds like corporate jargon for \u201clayoffs\u201d at the studio, also known for Total War<\/em><\/a> and Alien: Isolation<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sega also braced investors for a loss in the current fiscal year. \u201cAs a result of implementation of the structural reform described above in Consumer area, we expect to record losses of approximately 14.3 billion yen for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024,\u201d Sega wrote. In a statement to Engadget, Creative Assembly confirmed the beginning of layoff discussions. \u201cCreative Assembly, part of Sega Europe, has announced the beginning of a redundancy consultation process, alongside ending development of Hyenas<\/em>,\u201d the developer wrote. \u201cThis decision affects areas of its UK operations, which may result in job losses.\u201d<\/p>\n

Creative Assembly staff allegedly learned about the game\u2019s cancellation today at the same time Sega issued its statement, according t<\/a>o IGN<\/em>. Yanking Hyenas<\/em> so close to its scheduled launch was reportedly a shock to employees at the UK-based developer, although there was apparently internal concern at the studio about the game\u2019s prospects. IGN<\/em>\u2019s sources say Creative Assembly employees face redundancy but also expect company-wide cuts at Sega.<\/p>\n

Announced in 2022, Hyenas<\/em> was billed as a team-based extraction shooter for PlayStation, Xbox and PC, with players looting coveted pop-culture objects in wild zero-gravity environments. The over-the-top multiplayer title completed a closed beta earlier this month, dropped its final trailer in August and was still slated for a 2023 launch before today\u2019s news.<\/p>\n

Creative Assembly says it will try to reassign employees when possible. \u201cOur people-first approach remains foundational to how we operate; the priority is to work with those whose jobs are at-risk and re-allocate them to other available opportunities at CA wherever possible,\u201d a Creative Assembly representative wrote in an emailed statement to Engadget. \u201cWe are absolutely committed to delivering more exciting game experiences long into the future, which will delight both current and potential players all over the world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
