Amazon has conducted significant layoffs in its video game division, with its Irvine and San Diego offices, as well as its core publishing division, set to undergo 'major job cuts.' The company will also reduce investment in high-budget game projects, particularly in MMO game development. Amazon is now 'focusing on what Amazon does best' by increasing investment in its Luna cloud gaming service. The Montreal studio will continue developing 'March of Giants' while launching 'casual and AI-centric' games for Luna. External partner studios Crystal Dynamics and Maverick Games will respectively continue developing 'Tomb Raider' and racing games. Over the past decade, Amazon has failed to achieve significant breakthroughs in the gaming industry. This adjustment means it will gradually withdraw from in-depth online gaming layout (layout), with 'New World' halting content updates and servers operating until 2026. Recently, among Amazon's releases 'Court Chaos' and 'Meat Tycoon,' the latter received a lukewarm market response.
