Inflexion Games’ UK division is reportedly closing down

The
UK
division
of
Inflexion
Games
is
reportedly
closing
down.

Audio
director
Jon
Newman
confirmed
the
cuts
on

LinkedIn
,
saying:
“It
is
with
a
heavy
heart
that
I
am
sharing
the
sad
news
that
the
UK
subsidiary
of
Inflexion
Games
is
closing,
and
with
it,
the
roles
of
the
audio
team
based
here
in
the
UK
as
well
as
others
in
the
UK
are
affected.”

Principal
audio
designer
Rebecca
Parnell

confirmed
they
too
had
been
impacted
,
as
did
senior
audio
designer

Tom
Avis
.

Inflexion
has
yet
to
formally
acknowledge
the
cuts,
and
the
number
of
developers
impacted
by
the
layoffs
remains
unknown.

Newman
paid
tribute
to
colleagues,
saying
it
had
“been
a
joy
and
privilege”
to
work
on
the
studio’s
fantasy
open-world
survival
crafting
game,
Nightingale,
over
the
last
four
years.

“We
can
honestly
say
with
pride
that
we
gave
it
our
all
and
that
we
poured
our
hearts
into
creating
something
unique.”

Last
week,
we
reported
that

Surgent
Studios
had
put
its
entire
games
division
on
hiatus
as
it
struggled
to
secure
funding
,
placing
an
unknown
number
of
staff
at
risk
of
being
laid
off.
