In a surprising turn of events, PlayStation has shut down Dark Outlaw Games, a studio that was only founded last year by Jason Blundell, the former lead of Call of Duty Zombies. This closure marks another chapter in a troubling trend for Sony Interactive Entertainment, as it follows the earlier dissolution of Blundell’s previous venture, Deviation Games, which also faced cancellation of a PlayStation project in 2024. With around 50 employees affected, this move raises questions about the future of game development under the PlayStation banner.
