The international video game manufacturer Electronic Arts is hiring more people.
Game, a Los Angeles-based video game development studio, has been eliminated, along with about 100 other jobs, including about 100 at the company’s Redwood City, California, base.
In a speech from Electronic Arts official Justin Higgs, the company’s spokeswoman,” We’ve made some changes within our business that more effectively aligns groups and allocates resources in order to drive potential growth.”
The business, which has a sizable department in Marina del Rey, is assisting employees in finding new positions privately and offering assistance to ill-equipped employees, he added.
According to a source with knowledge of the breaks, between 300 and 400 people were affected by the breaks, according to Bloomberg .
The most recent setbacks for Electronic Arts, which had on 13,700 people as of March 2024, are.
After announcing a comparable reduction a year earlier, the company announced that it would cut about 5 % of its workforce in 2024.
Electronic Arts employs staff from all over the world, including in California. Game, the studio behind the well-known video game” Apex Legends” and” Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order,” has established producers in Wisconsin and Canada in addition to Los Angeles.
Game halted the development of a” Titanfall” activity that wasn’t even close to being released, according to Bloomberg. A number of first-person sniper activities are included in the Titanfall brand.
The company announced in a speech this month on social media  that it had made the decision to leave two early-stage hatching projects and make some specific group adjustments across Apex Legends and Star Wars Jedi.
Game said in the speech,” We are greatly pleased to every colleague affected by these decisions.”
