Battlefield veteran David Goldfarb's studio, The Outsiders, is closing down, but Goldfarb and the team are "not giving up."In a statement, Goldfarb said The Outsider is shutting up shop as part of wider cuts at studio owner Funcom. The Outsiders, which was founded in 2015, had a close call at closing up shop when the studio's other game, Darkborn, was canceled in 2020, Goldfarb said. After that game didn't make it, Funcom took a majority ownership of The Outsiders. The studio then released the rhythm-action game Metal: Hellsinger in 2022."It will always be a high point for me personally and I will be forever grateful we got to make it and for the wonderful team and partnerships that made it happen," Goldfarb said.Goldfarb said The Outsiders had plans to make something "even better" in the future, but "things don't always go the way you hope."That being said, Goldfarb said, "We are not giving up, and we are going to try to continue on in some new form. Change is always tough and right now we are all hurting."The Outsiders had around 60 employees at the Stockholm office, according to Funcom. The company recently announced that this year's Dune: Awakening was its biggest release in the company's 32-year history, but despite that, the publisher slashed a number of jobs.Goldfarb is known for his work on the Battlefield franchise from when he worked at DICE. He left in 2012 to join Overkill Software as the game director for the beloved Payday 2 before leaving to establish The Outsiders in 2015.
