2K Czech axes 40 staff

2K Czech, one of Europe’s leading triple-A studios, has lost more than 40 staff from a studio-wide redundancy operation.

The job terminations have taken place across two studios operating under the 2K Czech brand. One group, based in Brno, has lost up to 40 developers, inside sources have told Develop.

Another studio, based in Prague, is thought to have lost less than ten staff.

Both outfits had together employed nearly 200 people before the layoffs, meaning that 2K Czech has lost around a quarter of development personnel.

Sister site Develop has all the details.
