Insomniac Games has released a public statement in response to layoffs at the studio announced this week by parent company Sony Interactive Entertainment.
PlayStation said on Tuesday that it plans to lay off 900 employees worldwide, or about 8% or its workforce.
The move will include staff cuts at Spider-Man studio Insomniac and Last of Us developer Naughty Dog in the US.
