About

On August 5, 2024, mobile game developer and publisher Jam City laid off approximately 85 employees, representing about 10% of its workforce. This reduction brings the company's total employee count down from around 1,400. CEO Josh Yguado cited that the anticipated industry recovery in 2024 did not meet expectations, with challenging conditions projected to persist until the latter half of 2025. This marks the studio's second major round of layoffs, following a 17% cut in 2022, despite the company being profitable. Jam City, known for titles like Disney Emoji Blitz and Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, operates in the competitive mobile gaming industry.
