I was part of the Epic layoffs today. I worked as a Art Outsource Lead overseeing Fortnite Lego minifigs. I worked on everything from K-Pop DH, to huge streamers and minifigs for the latest Superman movies. If you’re looking for a Outsource Lead, Lead Or Char artist let me know!

I am safe, but many of my incredibly talented coworkers, colleagues and friends were affected 😔 Someone started a Google Form for those who are now seeking new opportunities. you can find the real-time list of AWESOME PEOPLE here: lnkd.in/eJ7sD6rd

@AmyyAwesome_ You're one of the best people i've ever met on this app too!

@XTigerHyperX2 🫶🏼

This is honestly one of the worst days on my time here on Twitter. I've been away from the community for the past few months , My interest in the game dropped a lot in the past couple of years , i have a lot going on in life But i've been feeling sad , sick , angry and terrible all day couldn't really focus or carry on with anything after i saw the news , i don't even really know why , however i'm truly grateful for all the work and effort and everything these devs have done to us and to this game that i've once loved a lot , it turns out you guys really mattered as much as the game did.. at least for me

Hey! Redownloaded this app to give the update we didn’t want to hear, I was impacted by the Epic Layoffs. Over the past 5 years, I shipped 24 seasons of Fortnite 🎮🌎 If you see any production roles that would be a good fit - please send them my way on LinkedIn!

The Lead Writer of Epic Games, Nik Blahunka, who worked at Epic Games for over 10 YEARS, contributing to both BR & STW's storylines was laid off today. I feel terrible for him, so many talented people were laid off today. This is all so infuriating. Shame on Sweeney.

Unfortunately, my role was impacted. 7 years on Fortnite now wrapped up. Lots of good people looking for new jobs today. If you know of any that fit my skillset, please let me know

Got hit by this, as did many of my super talented buds in QA. If anyone in the Seattle area is hiring, ya boy needs help. And if you know of work in Cary, I'd be happy to pass it on to other folk

@TimSweeneyEpic Better think less if your all of your thoughts lead laying thousands of the people who actually put effort and time and a huge part of their lives for this shitty ass treatment

@aaronp613 I have some thoughts.

Apple could announce WWDC 2026 as soon as this week! What do you hope to see announced at WWDC this year?

One of the best Fortnite Devs , we’re forever grateful for you Evan!

@evankinney Really sorry for you bro Genuinely one of the best and most skilled game developers I’ve interacted with! Wishing you all the best in ur future ❤️

guess who got laid off today! 🫠 i am genuinely so confused and bewildered like, i spent the past week debugging the rivalry system while recovering from pneumonia and just in the past few days i’ve had multiple directors tell me how much they appreciate everything i do

I’ve always found it crazy to pay some guys sitting at home making some weird ass brainrot ai shit thousands and even millions of dollars overall , but firing thousands of employees that actually built that shit Some crazy level management

@ShiinaBR Say what u want game got fucked hard with UEFN

EPIC GAMES LAYS OFF OVER 1000 EMPLOYEES "Today we’re laying off over 1000 Epic employees. I'm sorry we're here again. The downturn in Fortnite engagement that started in 2025 means we're spending significantly more than we're making." - Tim Sweeney

V-Bucks prices really inflated like if it was part of the war

@HappyPower Happy birthday!

Today I turned 30 years old. Its unbelievable how fast time goes by these days.
