Deep dives
Axis Studio Animation Firm Enters Administration
Axis Studio, a renowned games animation firm, has sadly gone into administration, resulting in over 160 job losses. The severe cash flow problems primarily stemmed from a decline in projects and increasing labor costs, leading to this unfortunate outcome. With a remarkable 24-year track record, Axis Studio's exceptional work, including memorable projects like the Dead Island trailer, will be sorely missed in the industry.
