Tony Hawk Developer Robomodo Struck By Layoffs

A mere two weeks before the release of its second game, Tony Hawk: Shred developer Robomodo is hit by layoffs, with sources reporting 30 to 60 jobs being cut due to the loss of the Tony Hawk H25 franchise. Formed in 2008, Robomodo is the Chicago-based development studio that Activision put in charge of the Tony Hawk franchise, starting with last year’s ill-received Tony Hawk: Ride, which introduced a plastic skateboard peripheral to the series.
