The difficult decision has been taken to fire 97 people from the support development, administration and service team, he continued.

Nevertheless, Eidos Montreal said that they would continue to strive to support all affected personnel through this transition.

"People who are very talented and experienced are entering the job market, and we want them to find the next project and help make it happen," the company said.
