The entertaining stories surrounding the release of the soulslike Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn from A44 Games continue. Yesterday we told you about the extremely low online in Steam for such a hyped game, but the wonders did not end there.
As reported by the Xbox administration, it turns out that the game has become extremely popular in their Game Pass service, and more than 500,000 people played it in two weeks! How much the game product attracted to SP5 is not reported, but in any case, this is an excellent indicator for such a modest product, but there is one nuance.
It also became known that the A44 Games studio will undergo large-scale layoffs, and some employees have already resigned of their own accord. And this does not really resemble the management’s reaction to the success announced above.
A44 Games will be the second studio after Surgent, the developers of Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, which worked closely with Sweet Baby Inc and was eventually cut due to the release’s failure.
