In a statement, Take-Two confirmed the decision to close the studio. According to spokesperson Alan Lewis, affected employees will be able to apply for other jobs at Zynga, which was recently acquired by Take-Two, and those who do not find new roles will be eligible for severance. Take-Two will continue to operate Two Dots through one of its Zynga studios, but the fate of other Playdots games, such as Garden Tails, is unknown, and Lewis declined to elaborate.
