NetEase, a prominent player in the gaming industry, recently made headlines by laying off a significant portion of its Marvel Rivals development team in Seattle. The layoffs, which affected 40% of the team, were part of an effort to “optimize development efficiency.” This move has sparked discussions about the implications for the game development community. The Heritage Foundation’s manifesto, which could influence future policy, has raised concerns about potential negative impacts on various sectors, including gaming. However, the focus here remains on the statistics: 40% of the team was let go, highlighting the harsh realities of corporate restructuring in the tech industry.
