Big layoffs at Raven

Sources "familiar with the Raven Software" have told Kotaku that Raven Software, developers of Singularity, have been hit by some major layoffs. Three teams have been slimmed down to one and 40 people have been laid off, according to the sources, and the studio will go from making games to focusing instead on downloadable content.

"With the recent completion of Singularity, Raven Software is realigning its workforce to better reflect the studio's upcoming slate," Activision told Kotaku, but didn't comment on any numbers.
