Thick as Thieves Studio Hit With More Layoffs, Left With “Fewer Than 10” Employees
OtherSide Entertainment has undergone further layoffs, reducing its staff to fewer than 10 employees, who are now focused solely on maintaining the co-op stealth game Thick as Thieves. The studio has no plans for future games following the cancellation of a project codenamed Argos and a reduction in scope for Thick as Thieves, which was originally envisioned as a PvPvE immersive sim. The studio's director, Jeff Hickman, stated that the current industry landscape makes their signature lengthy development cycles for immersive sims commercially unviable.
