In a story posted on Gamesindustry.biz, UK publisher Eidos has corrected some inaccuracies regarding the announced redundancies at the company’s Bath, UK based development studio Pivotal Games http://www.pivotalgames.com/

Eidos has issued a statement to GamesIndustry.biz to clarify the number of staff made redundant at UK developer Pivotal Games.

A maximum of 95 staff are to be axed, while the remaining “ between 10 and 12 artists “ will stay with the publisher long-term.

“The number of jobs which will be made redundant at Pivotal Games will be between 93 and 95, not the rumoured 99 which has been mentioned by some websites,” said the company.

Yep you read that right. Eidos went to the trouble of issuing a press statement to clarify that only 95 people are being made redundant instead of the 99 reported by some sites. I wonder who the lucky 4 are who get to stay while 90% of their colleagues are losing their jobs.
