Eidos Montreal via LinkedIn announced it is laying off 75 employees.
"Today, we informed our studio staff that we are going to let go up to 75 valuable members, as one of our mandates is coming to an end," said Eidos Montreal. "It is not a reflection of their dedication or skills, but unfortunately, we don’t have the capacity to entirely reallocate them to our other ongoing projects and services.
"These very talented, highly experienced experts are going to enter the employment market, and we are working to support them through this transition.
"Eidos-Montréal stays committed to deliver its other projects currently in development."
It was reported in January 2024 that Embracer had cancelled an unannounced Deus Ex game at Eidos Montreal. It was also confirmed in June 2024 the studio was supporting Playground Games with the development of Fable.
