Sucker Punch Lays Off 24 Staff Weeks After Ghost of Yōtei’s Echoes of Sekigahara Launch
Sucker Punch Productions, the studio behind Ghost of Tsushima and Ghost of Yōtei, has laid off 24 employees, approximately 10 percent of its staff. This decision comes less than a month after the launch of the Ghost of Yōtei: Echoes of Sekigahara expansion, despite the game selling millions. The layoffs are attributed to market challenges and the needs of the studio's next project, and follow similar cuts at other PlayStation studios like Bluepoint Games and Bungie.
