Tencent's cyberpunk rival to Grand Theft Auto is in trouble as its developer lays off 80 people
Tencent's ambitious cyberpunk open-world game, Last Sentinel, is reportedly in trouble as developer Lightspeed LA has laid off 80 employees. Publisher Tencent has lost confidence in the project, which has been in development for six years and faced multiple delays and reboots. While not officially cancelled, Lightspeed LA is now working on the game without Tencent's backing and plans to shift its creative direction.
