H1Z1-udvikleren Daybreaker, der førhen var kendt som Sony Online Entertainment, har bekræftet at et ukendt antal af de ansatte er blevet fyret. Nedskæringerne sker under to måneder efter, at H1Z1 blev erklæret free-to-play i stedet for den typiske betalingsform.
"Daybreak confirms we are realigning our workforce to better position our company for the future. Because of this, we have had to make an extremely difficult decision to part ways with some of our employees across various disciplines at the studio. We are doing everything we can to take care of each affected individual by providing them appropriate transition assistance."
"Daybreak remains focused on publishing and developing large-scale online games and will continue to service our existing and long-standing games and franchises."
Antallet er fyringer bliver ikke nævnt, men chief publishing officer Laura Naviaux Sturr har på Twitter afsløret, at hun ikke længere er en del af holdet.
Daybreak har udviklet samt arbejdet på H1Z1, Just Survive, Planetside 2, DC Universe Online, Everquest, samt Everquest 2.
