In a refreshing departure from the typical industry trend of post-launch layoffs, the developers of Lies of P at Round8 Studio were recently rewarded for their hard work with bonuses totaling $7,500 each. This generous gesture from publisher Neowiz comes in celebration of the successful launch of the game's Overture DLC, which has garnered positive feedback from players and critics alike.
The decision to reward the team highlights Neowiz's commitment to supporting its employees and fostering a positive work environment, especially in an industry often plagued by job insecurity following major releases. The bonuses serve as a testament to the company's recognition of the developers' dedication and creativity in bringing the Lies of P universe to life.
As the gaming landscape continues to evolve, this approach may set a new precedent for how publishers can engage with their teams post-launch, ensuring that talented developers feel valued and motivated to continue producing exceptional content.
