Payload Studios Faces Second Round of Layoffs Amid Project Shortfall

The TerraTech developer announced more staff cuts after a critical project failed to materialize, affecting at least eight employees.

Payload Studios, known for TerraTech, is undergoing another round of layoffs, months after cutting 25% of its workforce.
CEO Russell Clarke confirmed the layoffs were due to a project that did not come through, placing the studio in a challenging position.
Eight employees are reportedly affected, with no redundancy pay, and were given one month's notice.
One of the company's co-founders is allegedly among those laid off, although further details are yet to be confirmed.
The studio aims to provide more clarity to its staff later this week as it navigates these difficult times.
