Earlier this month, Xbox officially parted ways with four of its studios. Among them, Compulsion Games (South of Midnight) and Double Fine Productions (Psychonauts, Keeper, and more recently Kiln) regained their independence.

Unfortunately, this second studio is already facing the reality of its new status. As a result, Double Fine laid off 23 employees on Tuesday. This move was made to ensure the studio’s survival; it had previously employed approximately 90 people.

At this time, we know nothing about Double Fine’s future projects.
