Future UK plans to cut 13 games staff, close five websites and move all magazines to Bath

More of Future’s proposed cuts to its games department are coming to light.

The entire games portfolio is set to lose 13 members from its 51-strong team.

And the websites of Edge, OXM, ONM and OPM could be closed. This was assumed yesterday when we discovered that CVG faces closure and that Kotaku UK, PC Gamer and Gamesradar would be the only surviving online brands.

What’s more, the company’s games print publications in London faces a proposed moved to Bath. This includes OXM, ONM plus other entertainment brands such as Total Film and T3.

It would be important to stress, as with yesterday’s story, this is the current proposed changes. All staff have been put on a 45-day consultation period after disappointing financials and a profit warning in March.
