Sandsoft Shuts Down Barcelona and Riyadh Studios Impacting 65 Employees
Sandsoft, a Saudi gaming company, has announced the closure of its studios located in Barcelona, Spain, and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This significant change means that up to 65 staff members, mostly from the game development teams, will lose their jobs.
The company is shifting its focus solely to game publishing. This strategic move marks a major shift in Sandsoft’s business approach as it moves away from developing games in-house. The decision primarily impacts its development teams who have been working at these two international locations.
Sandsoft aims to concentrate its resources and efforts on publishing games, suggesting a new direction in its operations. The closure of the Barcelona and Riyadh studios signifies an end of an era for Sandsoft’s physical presence in these important gaming hubs.
Both employees and industry watchers are keen to see how this shift will affect the company’s future projects and market performance.
