Another week, another Dundee studio in trouble?
I’m hearing rumours that Cohort Studios made 38 people redundant in Dundee last week. The company is working on a PlayStation Move title called The Shoot but doesn’t have projects lined up after that.
I’ve added it to the Job Loss Tracker, but if anyone can confirm or deny the rumours of redundancies at Cohort, or point me to a news story about the layoffs, I would be grateful.
