Square Enix president Takashi Kiryu informed employees about the upcoming layoffs in an internal meeting on Monday, May 14 (thanks VGC for first coverage<\/a>). While we don\u2019t yet know the scale of this planned layoff, the staff were told people working in publishing, IT, and Square Enix\u2019s Collective indie games division will be most affected. Any impacted employees will be individually informed later this week, VGC suggested. However, many of Square\u2019s main Slack channels were reportedly locked after the internal meeting.<\/p>
