As reported at VGC, Tequila Works, the studio behind games like Rime and The Sexy Brutale, has taken to their LinkedIn to confirm that the cancellation of one of their unannounced titles would impact a small number of roles within the developer.
The statement, in full, reads:
“With deep regret, we must inform of the decision to cancel an unannounced game. This tough decision means we will be restructuring the studio to concentrate on the development of only one game. These changes will have an impact to a small number of roles at the studio.
“This is an incredibly difficult time, and our focus is to provide the support and guidance to those affected.”
A couple of years ago, Tencent became the studio’s majority shareholder, a move which Tequila at the time said would help the studio fund growth and development of brand new IP.
