More games jobs to go at Disney
Epic Mickey dev Junction Point hit this time
Disney has announced more job cuts as they make their strategic move away from developing console games.
As many as 350 staff will be made redundant at Warren Spector's Junction Point studio now that their Wii-exclusive title Epic Mickey has been released according to a CNBC report.
Disney released a statement to Variety saying: "As part of setting a strategic direction for future success in the digital media space, the Disney Interactive Media Group today began a restructuring process."
Last week Disney closed the Tron developer Propaganda Games as part of their plan to invest less in the console games market and more in digital media.
