In an email sent to staff, Spencer said that these decisions were intended to “position games for lasting success and allow ourselves to focus on strategic” more “growth areas to increase agility and effectiveness” in general.
“I recognize that these changes arrive at a time when we have more players, games and ever play hours. Our platform, hardware and road map have never been stronger. The success we are currently seeing is based on difficult decisions that we have taken previously,” he continued.

We will protect what it thrives and we will concentrate the effort in areas with the greatest potential, while offering the expectations that the company has for our business. This focused approach means that we can offer exceptional games and experiences for the players for the generations that come.”
