Branchen har det meget svært i disse tider, for hundredevis af jobs bliver skåret ned hver eneste uge, og vi hører konstant at relativt store studier har måtte lade mange ansatte gå. Det lader ikke til at udvikleren Piranha Bytes allerede har fyret en masse, men noget kunne tyde på at en fyringsrunde er på vej.
Via X har udvikleren bekræftet at de er i en "svær" situation, og det skyldes blandt andet at de er en del af Embracer Group, som i sig selv har sat sig for at skære helt ind til benet.
"Yes, it's true. We, Piranha Bytes, are in a difficult situation. There are a lot of news about us circulating right now and this is our answer: Don't write us off yet! We do everything to continue creating worlds in which you can lose yourself. This is what our hearts have always beaten for. We are convinced that we will succeed. We are creative minds and there's no lack of ideas! We stick together, no matter what. Now we are focussing on this goal with all our strength and do whatever it takes to find a partner for this project. As soon as there are any news, we will share them with you. Thank you very much for your continuous support."

De arbejder lige nu på et remake af det originale Gothic, der står til at udkomme i år.
