Layoffs at Sony Online Entertainment

Sony Online Entertainment is next in line to make some cuts as the games industry takes more hits from the ongoing recession, IndustryGamers reports.

A spokesperson has provided IndustryGamers with the following statement:

“In a move to increase operational efficiency and reduce costs, Sony Online Entertainment has eliminated 5% of its full-time workforce, equaling 41 people. SOE looks forward to continuing its leadership role in the online games industry as it celebrates the highly successful launch of Free Realms, the 10-year commemoration of its ground-breaking EverQuest franchise, and the continued performance of the company’s other games.”
