Ascendant Studios announced that the company will reduce its workforce by 45%. The company stated "We are supporting those affected in every way we can, including comprehensive severance packages and job placement assistance, as well as support services for those who remain. I am so proud of what our independent development team has accomplished with Immortals of Aveum. Together we've created a new AAA studio, a new IP, on new technology, during an era of our industry when that is exceedingly rare. We've poured our passion into Immortals, while wearing our hearts on our sleeves."
