Auroch Digital Deletes and Reposts Layoff Notice Two Weeks After Boltgun 2 Launch

Auroch Digital announced a restructuring affecting roughly a quarter of its staff two weeks after Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2 launched with a 96% positive Steam rating. The studio deleted its October 26 statement and reposted a nearly identical notice on October 28 without confirming the exact scale of cuts.

• Boltgun 2 holds a 96% positive Steam rating but has fewer than 1,000 reviews
• Layoffs affect about 25% of the Bristol-based studio's staff
• The initial layoff statement from October 26 was deleted
• Warhammer Survivors launches November 10; Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War! shipped earlier in 2026
