Amazon Lays Off 180 Employees In Its Games Division
(aftermath.site)
I honestly didn't know they had a games division
Pretty sure they were on about making a LotR MMO at some point? No idea what else they were up to though.
New World MMORPG is made by Amazon
They made Crucible which got some hype, but it flopped hard. For a game that was in development for 6 years, it didnt feel like they playtested it at all.
LotR MMO in the works, but they also made New World and Crucible
So all of them?
No, they kept all the middle managers on so they can schedule meetings and give each other raises.

Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little โ ๏ธ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
