ZA/UM, the studio behind Disco Elysium, has released a follow-up game called Zero Parades: For Dead Spies, which has received mixed reviews, with some outlets finding it to be a worthy sequel and others describing it as uneven. The game's launch has been followed by layoffs at the studio, with reports suggesting that up to 32 workers will be let go. The timing and exact number of layoffs have been reported, but the reason for the layoffs is implied to be related to the game's performance.
