Here's What We Know

The tweet indicates that the information was taken from the California WARN Notice, a law that requires California companies to give 60 days' notice of mass layoffs. According to the VGC, the California Employment Development Department confirmed the WARN notice, saying that there will be two separate layoffs of 49 and 12 employees. The layoffs will take effect on 8 March 2024.

It is worth noting that Sega itself did not announce any layoffs.
