Take-Two confirms possible Venom redundancies

Take-Two has responded to rumours of the closure of its UK development studio Venom Games.

"We are assessing the role of Venom Games in Take-Two's overall global studio system and are in a consultation with the employees of Venom in relation to possible redundancies at the studio," the publisher said in a statement.

"No final decision will be made until after the consultation with employees."

Venom Games most recently worked on Don King Prizefighter and Prey.
