So the studios Compulsion Games and Double Fine are going to go independent.
They're going through...
management buyouts um the studios ninja theory and undead labs have both been sold by xbox to undisclosed buyers and the fifth studio is arcane maker of blade and dishonored which um is entering the beginnings of the process to be potentially sold or spun off or
shut down, most likely sold.
But that process is long and elaborate, thanks to French labor laws.
They have to work with the union, they have to go through all of this kind of this lengthy process, rather than just kind of saying, see you later, goodbye, we're done.
In addition, those jobs, that 3,200 I mentioned earlier, 1,600 jobs were cut last Monday when all this went down, including a ton at ZeniMax, a bunch at Obsidian, a bunch all across the org, and then a bunch within the Xbox publishing platforms division.
And then another 1600 will be laid off in the fiscal year to come.
So even the people who survived this do not know who is going to be cut next, when it's going to happen, what that's going to look like.
Could be in some of the studios that haven't been touched, like Blizzard, or it could be people in Europe, could be people all over.
Who knows?
Nobody knows what's going to happen.
Yeah.
Pretty brutal stuff that all happened, Kirk, while you were preparing for Strong Songs.
I don't know if you saw the news.
Yeah, I was aware of it in the background.
Yeah.
Yep.
That number, by the way, so that second number of 1600 also includes the studios they're divesting.
So the real number is a little closer to 1200 or 1250, something like that.
