Sony Computer Entertainment is not planning to lay off staff from its Japanese arm despite recent job cuts in Europe and the US, according to a spokesperson.
As reported by the Associated Press, SCEI representative Sayoka Henmi confirmed that staff at Sony Computer Entertainment America have been made redundant - but declined to confirm how many. "The goal is to reform the organisation," she said.
Job cuts were also made at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe earlier this year, with SCEI spokesperson Satoshio Fukuoka then suggesting that the company's Japanese operations could also be subject to streamlining.
However, Henmi has now stated that Sony Computer Entertainment Japan has no plans to make any of its staff redundant.
