Microsoft has made significant cuts at Bethesda studios, impacting several development teams including Arkane Austin, Tango Gameworks, and Alpha Dog Studios. The closure of these studios has led to job losses and the cessation of development on projects such as Redfall and Hi-Fi Rush. Despite the closures, some Bethesda studios have been spared. Arkane Lyon, currently working on Marvel’s Blade, and Bethesda Game Studios, known for titles like Fallout and The Elder Scrolls series, will continue their operations. These developments mark a challenging time for the gaming community as beloved studios face closures and employees grapple with uncertain futures.
