# ProbablyMonsters Cancels *Another* Team and Game [ProbablyMonsters lays off "about 50 people" as Battle Barge project cancelled](https://www.gamesindustry.biz/probablymonsters-lays-off-about-50-people-as-battle-barge-project-cancelled) by Vikki Blake at GamesIndustry.biz > "ProbablyMonsters has laid off 'about 50 people.'" The timing of this news couldn't be more ironic. You can't make this stuff up. Sounds to me like the "weavers" at ProbablyMonsters are [[Concord and the Coat of Many Failures|running out of magic garments to sell]]. Over $250 million dollars raised in historical Series A funding, zero return, multiple studios shuttered, and they are some how [still trucking along](https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/developer-probablymonsters-lays-off-battle-barge-staff-after-project-cancellation). > "ProbablyMonsters explained it was undergoing a 'realignment to support smaller, more nimble teams and projects. We believe this format better matches the needs of players and the market. [...] Our hearts go out to everyone impacted as we navigate the new realities of the gaming landscape as an independent company.'" I wonder Harold Ryan will be held responsible for the leadership of ProbablyMonsters.
