Wildlight Entertainment has laid off the majority of its team working on the live-service shooter Highguard, just weeks after the game's release, but confirmed that a core group will continue supporting it. Former tech artist Josh Sobel highlighted the toxic online reaction that followed the game's reveal, including personal harassment and review bombing. The studio expressed pride in its work and gratitude to players who engaged with the game.
In a recent podcast, Highguard's senior level designer Alex Graner detailed why the game's initial 3v3 mode alienated casual players, as Wildlight Entertainment fully shifts to 5v5 formats like Raid Rush following funding cuts from Tencent and layoffs reducing the team to around 20.
