has announced a new “restructuring program” which will see some game studios closed and some projects cancelled.after the Swedish company said a major $2 billion partnership had fallen through unexpectedly and wouldn’t be going ahead as planned, leading to a slashing of its earnings forecast.
“We have acquired some of the world’s leading entertainment IP and we have invested into one of the largest pipelines of games across the industry. The program presented today will transform us from our current heavy-investment-mode to a highly cash-flow generative business this year.” “It is painful to see talented team members leave. Our people are what make up the very fabric of Embracer. I understand and respect that many of you will be worried about your own position and I don’t have all the answers to all questions. I want to be clear that the decisions about this program were not taken lightly.
Explaining the company’s plans in more detail, Wingefors said: “The actions will include, but not be limited to, closing or divestments of some studios and the termination or pausing of some ongoing game development projects.
