Codemasters, Developer of F1 and WRC, Faces Layoffs Amidst Evolving Business Needs

Codemasters, the developer behind popular racing games like F1 and WRC, has been hit with layoffs, with the QA team reportedly being the most affected. The exact number of employees let go has not been disclosed. This comes after EA's acquisition of Codemasters earlier this year, which has already resulted in the departure of the CEO and CFO, as well as the end of the Project Cars franchise. The gaming industry, despite being considered one of the best years for gaming, continues to see layoffs and restructuring.
