According to a report from GameIndustryBiz, 21 jobs could be lost at EA’s Visceral Melbourne Studio following a news announcement from the studio’s management team:
The team had apparently been working on a new AAA title for consoles for three years, but new VP of the EA Games Label Patrick Soderland killed the project on the grounds it would not be a financial success for the company.
While EA has refused to comment on the rumours, the IGDA Melbourne confirmed the reports through its official Twitter account.
