A little over a week ago, it was reported that SuperBot Entertainment, the developer responsible for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, had been hit with layoffs.
Many began to speculate that perhaps Sony was not too happy with the final product. Well, it has just been revealed that Sony is cutting all ties with the studio also.
All future game content will be handled by Sony themselves, by Santa Monica Studio. The publisher released the following statement to Kotaku:
"Sony Computer Entertainment can confirm that the working agreement with developer SuperBot Entertainment has amicably ended… We have had a positive working relationship with this talented studio, and wish them the best of success in their next endeavor."
As for SuperBot, they had this to say:
"SuperBot Entertainment can confirm that the relationship with SCEA has ended on good terms. We are extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to work on with Sony on Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale, and are extremely proud of the work we have done. SuperBot Entertainment will continue working on projects that reflect our passion for games and our commitment to creating award winning titles. We are very excited about beginning the next chapter of our future and invite all of our fans and supporters to follow our journey."
