The Vancouver Sun is reporting that roughly 100 employees are being laid off from developer Radical Entertainment. These staff reductions are a result of parent company Activision Blizzard's decision to reduce the developer's number of projects in half.

"Activision Blizzard is committed to making the best games possible and has elected at this time to reduce the number of titles that Radical is developing from four games to two," said Leah Rubin, Radical's vice-president of human resources, to the Sun. "Therefore, we will be proportionately reducing the size of our studio."

Since the merger of Activision Blizzard entered its final stages, the studio has evaluated all of the projects under former Vivendi Entertainment for likely profitability. The games Prototype and Crash: Mind Over Mutant are being retained by Activision Blizzard, meaning that the planned sequel to Scarface: The World is Yours has likely gotten the cut.
