Folks with prior success are struggling to realize that the game industry has changed completely. It's never going back to how it was. Funding, development, and audiences have all fragmented and that is the "new normal." Only folks who have been scrapping their whole career will weather this change.
Screenshot from LinkedIn. The statement from the CEO is very long but the relevant part is that a) they laid people off and b) there's talk of "overwhelming evidence of organized espionage and corporate sabotage affecting Mindseye" (that's the company's game that came out and did very poorly.

Artwork of Joy from Sega Dreamcast video game Shenmue 2, illustrated by Jarckius Art. This version pictures her in a 1980s style cheetah-print aerobics workout outfit with a light blue jacket draped off her shoulders. Joy is looking at the viewer with a smile and striking a confident pose. She's also wearing a red headband with a bow, large gold hoop earrings, and has a red thigh strap on top of pink/blue gradient tights. Her name is spelled out in Japanese characters ใธใงใค behind her in the aqua blue bubbly background.
