While Wipeout HD developer Studio Liverpool recently endured a merger with Evolution Studios, they'll now have to undergo another shake-up. Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has revealed that Studio Liverpool will undergo a “restructuring,” which may result in layoffs.
“It has been decided that production on a number of projects within Studio Liverpool will cease immediately due to project prioritization,” said SCEE in a statement to GI.biz. "Our North West Studio Group has been and will continue to be a vital cog in the WWS family, with a history of producing genre defining games such as MotorStorm, WipEout, Formula 1 and WRC and this decision will have no impact of the role that the North West Studio Group will play in the future of all PlayStation platforms."
