It probably won't come as much of a surprise to hear that MindsEye, which is one of the most controversial Xbox games of 2025 so far, is apparently leading to mass layoffs at the new development studio Build a Rocket Boy.

A report from IGN mentions that over 100 employees are potentially affected according to "studio sources", which represents 1/5 (or more) of the entire workforce which stands at somewhere around 500 employees.
