Le directeur de Marvel Rivals et l'équipe de conception de Seattle entière est mise à pied, NetEase dit aux fans de ne pas s'inquiéter du jeu

Auteur：Kristen Mise à jour：Mar 15,2025

NetEase, le développeur derrière le jeu mobile à succès Marvel Rivals , a annoncé des licenciements affectant son équipe de conception basée à Seattle. Le directeur du jeu Thaddeus Sasser a révélé la nouvelle sur LinkedIn, exprimant sa surprise étant donné le récent succès du jeu. Marvel Rivals , un tireur de héros gratuit, a dépassé 20 millions de téléchargements depuis son lancement de décembre et possède des numéros de joueurs simultanés impressionnants sur Steam.

Le profil LinkedIn de Sasser indique que son équipe a joué un rôle crucial dans la conception et le développement du jeu au cours des deux dernières années. NetEase a confirmé les licenciements dans une déclaration pour IGN, citant des "raisons organisationnelles" et la nécessité d'optimiser l'efficacité du développement. Bien que le nombre exact d'employés affectés reste non divulgué, NetEase a souligné que les licenciements n'affecteront pas le soutien continu aux concurrents de Marvel . L'équipe de développement de base du jeu, basée à Guangzhou, en Chine, reste pleinement déterminée à fournir de nouveaux contenus, y compris des personnages, des cartes et des fonctionnalités.

Cette dernière série de licenciements suit un modèle d'investissement à l'étranger réduit et de fermetures de studios par NetEase. Les actions antérieures incluent la fermeture des studios basés aux États-Unis et au Japon, tels que les studios Ouka (développeur de Visions of Mana ), et la pause des opérations pour les mondes indigne et l'annulation de Jar of Sparks .

Les rumeurs sur Switch 2 suggèrent un "été de Switch 2" l'année prochaine

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019. Here’s what’s known: Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony. In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work. There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio. In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019. Here’s what’s known: Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony. In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work. There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio. In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
