Schell Games, the studio behind Among Us 3D and the I Expect You to Die series, has reportedly laid off around 14 staff members across marketing, art, design, and visual effects departments, according to LinkedIn posts from affected employees. This marks the company's first ever layoffs. The cuts are notable because CEO Jesse Schell had previously spoken publicly about the studio's philosophy of never putting jobs at risk, even when its own games underperform financially. The company has not yet issued a public statement, and GamesIndustry.biz has reached out for comment.
