A year after laying off 25% of its workforce, Unity has reportedly undergone further staff reductions. Recent layoffs were shared by multiple employees on LinkedIn, suggesting an unexpected nature to the cuts. The number of affected employees remains unclear, but reports confirm that the team overseeing the Unity Behavior tool has been dissolved.

Unity, which has faced criticism for its focus on monetization and unpopular policy changes, continues to struggle despite being a prominent game engine. Leadership changes were also notable in 2023, when CEO John Riccitiello stepped down amid backlash from developers.

In a communication from the current CEO, Matthew Bromberg expressed the challenges of managing too many products and emphasized the need for a streamlined focus moving forward. Unity aims to optimize its offerings to assist customers in reaching broader audiences via various platforms and devices. The repercussions of these changes inevitably result in job losses as Unity restructures to eliminate redundancy among roles. All parties affected are expected to be informed of their employment status shortly.
