To say it's been a rough year for the games industry's workforce is putting it mildly; thousands of jobs have been lost as companies restructure and downsize following rapid growth during the onset of the pandemic.
Perhaps this is most prominently demonstrated by the ongoing restructure of Embracer Group, where expansion was not limited to the last few years. Since 2017, the company has acquired almost 90 businesses, ranging from smaller developers like Zen Studios, to AAA studios such as Gearbox and Crystal Dynamics, to non-games firms like tabletop leader Asmodee, comics publisher Dark Horse Media, and even Lord of the Rings owner Middle-Earth Enterprises.
