Thanks to the failure that was Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, it looks like Rocksteady has laid off 18 employees, taking the company from 33 employees to just 15. 

It sucks seeing studios let go of staff like this. And I blame this solely on WB for wanting to go into the live service direction. I believe they are to blame for these employees losing their jobs. 

It's said that the game failing was a $200 million hit to revenue.

That's a devastating news! The shift to live service games can be risky, and it's so unfortunate that the employees are the ones to bear the brunt.
