A couple of days ago, some employees of French developer Quantic Dream staged a strike in front of the studio's Paris headquarters in an attempt to save both up to 115 colleagues (who are on the verge of being laid off) and the studio's big Star Wars Eclipse project. Let's hit the rewind button for a minute. The development of Star Wars Eclipse, formally announced at The Game Awards 2021, has reportedly "simmered" for years as the studio struggled in many areas, including hiring new talent. Then, in late 2025, Quantic Dream announced another game, the 3v3 MOBA Spellcasters Chronicles, […]

This all comes from a new report from Insider-Gaming, who claim to […]
