SOE Layoffs
Ouch! Free Realms developer SOE recently laid off 41 employees, which is about 5% of their workforce.
Wonder if it's economy driven? A result of their latest game's development largely being done? Or a little bit of each? Either way, not good news. Just a bit of a surprise announcement since their recent game has been such a huge success so far.
Update: Worth noting, Gamasutra reported that the layofs were "company wide, from a variety of departments."
