The company, founded by former BioWare veteran Aaryn Flynn and acquired by Tencent in 2022, is making these changes to ensure long-term sustainability. The Edmonton headquarters will also undergo changes to maintain operations, with a commitment to supporting affected employees and sharing future updates on Nightingale. ## Content # Inflexion Games Undergoes Restructuring, Closes UK Office, and Lays Off Staff Inflexion Games is undergoing significant restructuring, resulting in the closure of its UK office and the layoff of approximately 22 employees. This move comes in response to broader industry trends and the underperformance of their debut title, **Nightingale**, during its Early Access phase. ## Company Background Founded by former BioWare veteran Aaryn Flynn, Inflexion Games was acquired by Tencent in 2022. Despite achieving a peak of 40,000 concurrent players shortly after release, the fantasy PvE survival game **Nightingale** has not been financially viable enough to sustain the studio's current operations. ## Restructuring and Layoffs CEO Aaryn Flynn announced that the company's restructuring aims to ensure long-term sustainability. While the UK division has been shut down, the headquarters in Edmonton, Canada, will also undergo changes to maintain the studio and the game's operations. The company is committed to providing support to the affected employees during this transition. ## Future Updates Inflexion Games has promised to share more details on future updates for **Nightingale** soon. The focus remains on adapting to the evolving gaming industry landscape and ensuring the studio's stability moving forward. The restructuring represents a challenging yet necessary step for Inflexion Games as they seek to navigate the competitive and rapidly changing gaming market. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#gaming](https://daily.dev/tags/gaming), [#game-development](https://daily.dev/tags/game-development) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/inflexion-games-restructures-layoffs-and-uk-office-shutdown-following-nightingale-s-early-access-ch-urmzak7ha) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Inflexion Games Restructures: Layoffs and UK Office Shutdown Following Nightingale's Early Access Challenges","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/inflexion-games-restructures-layoffs-and-uk-office-shutdown-following-nightingale-s-early-access-ch-urmzak7ha","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/inflexion-games-restructures-layoffs-and-uk-office-shutdown-following-nightingale-s-early-access-ch-urmzak7ha"},"datePublished":"2024-10-30T17:38:28.183Z","dateModified":"2024-11-01T04:52:15.367Z","description":"Inflexion Games is restructuring, which includes closing its UK office and laying off around 22 employees due to broader industry trends and the...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/51ca385e4150ff5aab67fd36b759fff8?_a=AQAEuiZ","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/51ca385e4150ff5aab67fd36b759fff8?_a=AQAEuiZ","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/inflexion-games-restructures-layoffs-and-uk-office-shutdown-following-nightingale-s-early-access-ch-urmzak7ha","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":1},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"gaming,game-development","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Inflexion Games Restructures: Layoffs and UK Office Shutdown Following Nightingale's Early Access Challenges"}]} ```
