UNTIL DAWN REMAKE STUDIO REPORTEDLY SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY

Ballistic Moon, the studio responsible for the Until Dawn remake, has reportedly "effectively closed," following multiple rounds of layoffs. According to recent reports, the UK-based studio let go of about 40 employees last October and subsequently lost its remaining developers in December. This situation arose after unsuccessful efforts to secure funding or pitch new projects, leaving only the founders and a few non-developer staff. The studio's PR, marketing, and development teams have all been disbanded. Community feedback about bugs in Until Dawn remains unaddressed as there is no longer anyone to handle post-launch support.

Meanwhile, similar layoffs and studio closures have been observed in the broader gaming industry, highlighting ongoing challenges for developers.

Ballistic Moon has effectively closed due to significant layoffs, with only the founders and a few non-developers remaining, as all development, marketing, and PR staff have been dismissed.

Until Dawn, released in 2015 by Supermassive Games, is an interactive horror game that became well-known for its engaging story and character choices. The recent remake aimed to bring the experience to new platforms, but the studio's closure raises concerns about the future of any potential updates or sequels.
