Starbreeze struggles after Overkill's The Walking Dead fails to set tills alight
Starbreeze says it's cutting costs and refocusing on its core business after Overkill's The Walking Dead failed to meet expectations.
Overkill's The Walking Dead is a four-player co-op shooter that launched on 6th November but failed to make much of an impression (we called it "a limp Left 4 Dead-a-like" in our review). It's currently not in Steam's top 100 games by current player count, which means it has fewer than 2334 concurrent players at the time of publication.
In a press release, Starbreeze said it will now review the cost of operations and trigger a program to reduce costs and "sharpen" focus on core business. There's no mention of job losses, but it sounds like the company is having to tighten its belt.
