A shame. I liked Concrete Genie.

Well well well

So much for the land of the freedom and well managed Playstation Studios.

Here´s hoping for all of the developers affected to find new positions as soon as possible.

Shame great game nobody supported as usual, then moan about rinse and repeat games.

I was actually wondering about the studio not so long ago. I wasn't a big fan of concrete genie it was actually surprised that it was a Sony first party game when I first played it. I hope Sony grab some of this team and puts him into one of their new studios

Horrible.

They were working with Sony Animation, i was excited. Dang. I liked Concrete Genie and the team couldn't be expensive. I often defend Ryan but this sucks and screams money man. Shutdown much of JP Studios as well. I get the business aspect but as a fan i don't have to like it.

Well that sucks. From what I read they were an extremely tiny studio. Assuming some of the devs will maybe switch over to San mateo studios?

Wow I’m actually upset by this no joke. I loved Concrete Genie. I pre ordered it and it was my personal goty. It was beautiful in 4k and the sixaxis controls made it really unique for a typical first party game. This is sad af

It's a real shame because PixelOpus epitomizes the term "unrealized potential" in my eyes. I'll admit I don't think they'd made a good game yet (played both Entwined & Concrete Genie), BUT you can see they had something to build towards while keeping their creative side intact. Sucks we won't see that promising 3rd title now.

Hopefully everyone finds other great jobs in the industry.

Shame. I got CG day one. Both me and my son beat it.

Sad news to hear

Which makes no sense because they're buying studios. Just give them a different project to work on, assign them something instead of shutting them down. Ask if they'd like to work on, an old IP to revive it instead of wasting talent, that goes to Microsoft. Lame.....

Microsoft has had the same problem. They buy the Gears IP and then Rod Ferguson leaves. (Goes to show as well that even Microsoft's bottomless pockets isn't appealing enough)

sad news. I love Concrete Genie, bought the physical copy and Platinumed it. it doesn't have that essence to be great, sure but it's ok. it was not the game I hoped it was but I enjoyed it for what it is. hopefully, they can find their footing after this closure and come back stronger.

Damn 3rd Sony studio to shut down this gen. What's going on over there?

no doom and gloom for sony huh. if ths was xbox Shutting Down a studio. all hell would break loose. but since its sony. crickets from the media and fanboys

Evolution Studios shouldn't have been shutdown.

They were awesome and its' a shame more ppl did not buy motorstorm pacific rift etc. Great game.

But Driveclub was a sweet game, but needed to be 60fps.

Somethings don't work out But Sony should be remake those games. they were awesome.

I never played genie, but it looked nice, I'm sure these guys will move on to bigger stuff.

Shame, Sony should be taking care of studios like this better and provide better marketing strategy for such games, if Bathesda can shadow drop Hi Fi Drop and still be a hit, Sony should have strategies for such low profile games

Wow! Such a great game! Sad!

concrete genie was rly good.
sad news indeed

That's unfortunate, Concrete Genie was an interesting little game.

Oh no.
