NCsoft confirms new layoffs - PC News at GameSpot

It is so said, that some well known companies have stuff not going well. The NCSoft, famous for the MMO games like Guild Wars and Lineage series, Tabula Rasa, City of Heroes and Villians, Auto Assault, Aion, has some trouble, starting with closing down all Tabula Rasa servers this month.





In September, Korean massively multiplayer online role-playing game company NCsoft announced sweeping plans to restructure its North American and European operations under a single, unified label: NCsoft West. Immediately, the initiative resulted in NCsoft laying off about 30 employees from its Austin, Texas studio and establishing an NCsoft West headquarters in Seattle, Washington.



Today, NCsoft announced what it plans to be the final element of its corporate restructuring efforts, revealing an additional round of layoffs that it expects will affect 70 to 90 employees. The cuts will primarily come in support services, and an NCsoft West representative assured GameSpot that no in-development projects will be adversely affected by the cuts.
