According to multiple employees on LinkedIn, Visual Concepts has laid off a number of staff at its Austin, TX office.

"Unfortunately, myself and several talented people were laid off at Visual Concepts Austin today," wrote executive producer Joseph Cowan. At time of writing, these layoffs appear to only affect the Austin staff across departments such as production, design, and QA.

Visual Concepts has a variety of subsidiaries stationed around the globe in locations such as Korea and Budapest. US-wise, the developer is also set up in California locales Los Angeles, Novato, and south California.

Founded in 1988, the 35-year-old company is best associated with 2K's various sports games, mainly the NBA and WWE 2K franchises. Its most recent releases are WWE 2K23 (which released back in March) and Lego 2K Drive (May).

I just grabbed Lego 2k drive a couple months ago and played the shit out of it. Really fun worlds to drive in and decent driving mechanics. Not a fan of Lego games in particular, but Drive was really good.
