THQ Chooses Today Of All Days To Fire Employees, Close Studio


On the very day the deal was publicly announced which saw the rights to the UFC franchise pass from THQ to EA, the former has reportedly closed its San Diego studio, which was last responsible for WWE All Stars.

Kotaku has heard from some affected that, yes, most employees were informed of the decision today. The first day of E3. About as busy a day in the games press as you’re ever going to get.

The studio had apparently been working on THQ’s next UFC game, which is obviously no longer needed.

We’ve contacted THQ for confirmation, and will update if we hear back.
