After less than six months of closing the estimated 70 people, Smite 2 Developer Hi-Regio has created another round of the cut. But this time, instead of rank-end-filing staff, the trimmed focuses on the “senior management positions” near the top of the company’s food chain.
Sorting was previously reported by former high-raz designer Thorag, whose message X Last week, Smite Subreddit was quickly shared, where Smite’s executive manufacturer Alex Canttore last week confirmed “a handful of punishments in senior management posts”.
“Stew (Hi-Rez president Stewart Chisam) is infection away from hi-raz as part of this,” Cantor wrote“Travis (executive manufacturer Travis Brown) and radar (leading manufacturer Tony Jones) were also impressed, as well as two people in senior management on a rally here. I am very sad to lose them all.
“The board’s rationale was that the company had a lot of senior management in relation to our current size. It does not impress our main mission, or any other people directly when working on Smite 2. We will continue to focus on our efforts to improve the core game and the new player’s experience, while our current combines more deities at the speed of one-time.”
In a separate post LinkedinChisam confirmed that he was leaving the hi-raz, writing that his departure “has been discussed for a long time (with Hi-Res CEO Eraz Goren), but the time was correct at the end.”
“The last few years have become difficult for hi-raz and for the industry,” Cheesam wrote. “Surely everything has not worked as we expect, but I think we have left a unique footprint on the industry-and a mid-size cross-platform Games Games-e-Sarvis Pioneer tried to take out a location as a constant fighting against the legends. The team is absolutely incredible.
Jones also confirmed Linkedin He has recently been “leaving hi-rage” as part of reorganization. “
Over the years, as Chisam said, it is not great for hi-raz. The studio announced Smite 2 in January 2024, with the promise of supporting both the original game and the sequel, but closed the wheels from the plan before the end of the year: In October 2024, Hi-Reje shut down an uninterrupted number of employees and “completely to close our efforts on Smite 2″ In the beginning of this year ” Confirmed the end of development of major updates.
