Supermassive Games, the studio behind Little Nightmares III, Until Dawn and The Dark Pictures Anthology, has announced it is beginning a "redundancy consultancy process" that could result in up to 75 job losses. The company described the move as a necessary step to ensure its long-term sustainability, though it did not give a detailed explanation for the cuts. It marks the latest blow for staff at a studio that has now cut jobs three times in as many years.

The announcement follows two earlier rounds of layoffs, with 90 roles cut in February 2024 and a further 36 in July 2026, suggesting deeper financial or structural pressures at the company. Little Nightmares III, developed for Supermassive by Tarsier Studios, received a more mixed reception than its predecessors, scoring 6/10 in Nintendo Life's own review, which praised its atmosphere but felt it was "an echo of what came before". Supermassive said its priority during the process would be supporting those affected.
