Dead by Daylight maker Behaviour announces its second round of layoffs this year


Layoffs are hitting the game industry once again, with Dead by Daylight maker Behaviour Interactive letting go as many as 95 workers.

Behaviour said in a press release that its ranks had grown from 575 to 1,300 over the last five years, buoyed by the success of Dead by Daylight and its service business (it works "alongside the industry’s global leaders to develop hundreds of high-quality titles"). It notes that the high level of competition in the gaming space has led it to narrow its focus on its core strengths, with the restructuring process leading to the layoffs. On Monday, Just Cause creator Avalanche closed studios in the city and New York, laying off 50 people as a result.
