Microsoft has closed a number of Bethesda studios, including Redfall maker Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush developer Tango Gameworks, and more in devastating cuts at Bethesda, IGN can confirm.
Prey (2017) hit such a sweet spot for me; absolutely loved it. Was really hoping we'd get a sequel. I was never able to get into Deathloop and I've only heard negative stuff about Redfall.
According to Bloomberg, 70% of the staff that worked on Prey were gone by the time Redfall was released. Real shame to see a studio fall from grace and end up shuttered whether it be management decisions or lost talent.
