Electronic Arts Inc. is laying off hundreds of workers and canceling a Titanfall game that was in development at its Respawn Entertainment subsidiary.

Between 300 and 400 positions were eliminated, including around 100 at Respawn, according to a person familiar with the cuts. The company had about 13,700 employees at the end of March 2024.

“As part of our continued focus on our long-term strategic priorities, we’ve made select changes within our organization that more effectively aligns teams and allocates resources in service of driving future growth,” Justin Higgs, a spokesman for the Redwood City, California-based company, said in a statement.

If you want a game that has fun movement in it and isn't being suffocated by late stage capitalism, check out the indie game Splitgate (and the soon to come out Splitgate 2).

The gameplay is halo---ishh with a really well integrated jetpack.

The gunplay is VERY tight and there is a lot of movement and positioning skill to the game, I always have a blast when I play!
