According to a new report from Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, BioWare’s current headcount is less than 100 people, exactly half the size it was two years ago when the studio was developing Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
Employee Transfers and Layoffs
The report states that some employees who were transferred to other teams on a temporary basis have now been notified that these transfers will be permanent, meaning they are no longer considered part of BioWare while serving in a different area.
Additionally, Schreier’s report confirms Insider Gaming’s reports of a recent round of layoffs at the studio that has resulted in many employees being laid off.
