No full pay for Crytek UK staff since April

A number of staff at Crytek UK have not been paid their full salary since April 21st, a source connected to the matter has told MCV’s sister siteDevelop.

The source, who has ties with the studio, said since April employees had received small payments of around 700 last month. At the time they had been told a deal was being made to secure money from Deutsche Bank, but that was since delayed.

A further payment was paid on June 16th, with staff then told to expect payment on Friday, June 27th. The source claims however this "now looks like it won’t happen”.
