The bad news for THQ continues today as more layoffs at the studio have been announced. While the company would not share any details about how many people would lose their jobs, they did reveal that it has affected their administrative and publishing departments says Joystiq.
THQ did stress however that it did not affect the five internal studios THQ San Diego, Relic, Volition, Vigil and THQ Montreal. THQ’s statement on the issue went as such: “As recently announced, the company is exiting the kids’ licensed games category, and is focusing on its core game franchises and developing its digital initiatives. The company will provide greater financial detail regarding the costs and organizational benefit on its third quarter 2012 conference call scheduled for Thursday, February 2, 2012.” Hopefully this is the end of the bad news for THQ…
