Relic Entertainment Cuts 41 Jobs Amid Gaming Industry Volatility

The layoffs come as the studio seeks stability after regaining independence from Sega, marking its second major staff reduction in a year.

Relic Entertainment, known for Company of Heroes and Dawn of War, announces layoffs of 41 employees following its recent independence from Sega.
The layoffs are part of a strategy to ensure the studio's survival in a volatile gaming industry, following a trend of mass layoffs across the sector.
This is the second round of layoffs at Relic in less than a year, with over 120 staff cut last May due to external industry challenges.
Affected employees will receive severance packages, extended benefits, and outplacement support.
Relic plans to continue supporting Company of Heroes 3 and is yet to announce its next project.
