Such a sad day for the game industry. Bioware was one of the studios that inspired me to pursue a career in games. Your contributions to this industry were monumental and will not be forgotten.
The bright side to starting your Wednesday with a needle into your sacroiliac joint is that there's a high likelihood that the day can only get better.

Discourse aside, normalize feeling empathy and appreciation towards those who work to bring you joy. It is possible to do this while also holding whatever criticism you might have of products or practices. – at Clyde Hill, WA
My heart goes out to all my old coworkers and friends at Obsidian and Bethesda who were impacted by the layoffs today. This industry is spiraling, and it's incredibly painful to watch.
All of us actually making games just want to make great games. We want each other to make great games. We all are part of the same community. None of us are sitting here cheering that other companies are doing worse or making worse decisions.
It's been a week 🙌 Such a massive relief to finally share what we've been up to with the world. More to come in the future! In the meantime, back to the grind to make this game the best version of itself.
Really proud of our team over at @SonySantaMonica. Looking forward to sharing more about God of War Laufey in the future!

I am honored to return to the God of War saga, as the composer of God of War Laufey.
I’ve been working on this for years with a stunningly talented team of developers, musicians, performers, and singers, and look forward to sharing more of all our work with you soon!

Eight years ago, we released God of War (2018). At the time, it was simply known internally as INT8, our eighth developed game. Eight years later, that detail has taken on new meaning as we celebrate everything this journey has become. Thank you for joining us on the adventure!
