Gearbox confirm redundancies. Eurogamer report that following Embracer selling off the company staff jobs have indeed been impacted. Many of those affected by the sale took to social media last week to confirm they had lost their jobs. The layoffs happened just hours after it was announced that Embracer had agreed the sale to Publisher Take-Two for a cool $460 million dollars. Gearbox have also issued a statement, claiming the layoffs are not ‘tied’ to Gearbox Software games development. ”Thank you for your thoughts and care for The Gearbox Entertainment Company as some reports of internal communication and actions are starting to flow through public channels.” "As we strive towards our mission to entertain the world, we are grateful that our talent and capability are of interest to you and your audience. The Embracer Group will continue to report on their restructuring program that impacted some parts of Gearbox today that are not tied to the development of Gearbox Software games.” "Thank you for granting us the space to remain focused on our people and in our handling of the situation with compassion and manage the process, balancing between our present duty and a commitment to our future." The number of Gearbox Entertainment staff layoffs has not been officially confirmed. THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
