Big Fish Games announced it has cut 250 jobs as it restructures the mobile game publisher and developer to “address scaling challenges and reinforce the company’s positioning for growth.” If that sounds vague to you, it does to me, too.
The Seattle-based company has been around a long time as a game developer, with a focus on casual mobile and social casino games. Big Fish Games recently launched EverMerge in May, and it said its social casino business had “strong momentum.” Most game companies have been reporting stronger results as people play more while sheltering at home during the pandemic. So it’s not clear exactly what the challenges are that caused one of the largest layoffs in the game industry this year.
