Epic Games Announces Significant Workforce Reductions
Epic Games 宣佈大幅裁員
In March 2026, the gaming giant Epic Games announced a major workforce reduction, parting ways with over 1,000 employees—roughly 20% of its staff.
2026年3月,遊戲巨頭Epic Games宣布進行大規模人力縮編,與超過1,000名員工分道揚鑣,約占其員工總數的20%。
CEO Tim Sweeney attributed the decision to a notable downturn in Fortnite engagement that began in 2025, which created a gap between the company's spending and its earnings.
執行長Tim Sweeney將此決定歸因於自2025年起《Fortnite》的參與度顯著下滑,造成公司支出與營收之間的缺口。
Despite market rumors, Sweeney explicitly stated these cuts were not caused by the adoption of Artificial Intelligence, emphasizing a desire to keep as many developers as possible.
儘管市場上有傳言,Sweeney明確表示這些裁員並非由採用人工智慧所致,並強調希望盡可能留住開發人員。
