Originally Published 4 months ago — by Engadget

Firaxis, the developer behind the Civilization series, is laying off an undisclosed number of staff as part of a restructuring effort, despite the company's expectations of financial growth for 2025. The layoffs follow turmoil at another 2K studio, and some affected employees have shared their experiences on social media. The move comes even as Firaxis continues to update Civilization VII, which was released in February 2025.
