Wizards of the Coast Lays Off 90% of Sigil Virtual Tabletop Team

The unfinished platform will be scaled back and integrated into the D&D Beyond system, leaving its future uncertain.

The Sigil virtual tabletop, launched in late February 2025, has faced criticism for its incomplete state and usability issues.
Approximately 90% of the Sigil development team, including senior writer Andy Collins, were laid off as confirmed by Collins on LinkedIn.
The layoffs leave only a small team to oversee the platform's transition into the D&D Beyond subscription service.
Sigil was envisioned as a high-priority project to modernize Dungeons & Dragons gameplay but struggled with technical challenges and unclear direction.
The downsizing reflects broader cost-cutting measures and monetization strategies by Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, raising doubts about Sigil's long-term viability.
