Moon Active layoffs
Moon Active laid off 110 employees in January 2026 — its second round in 12 months
(Source: Globes [en.globes.co.il], January 27, 2026; Calcalist; Pocket Gamer)
- January 2026: 110 employees laid off globally — 5% of the 2,200-person workforce. Includes 30 employees in Israel (Globes).
- The layoffs followed a first round “about a year ago” — dozens of employees cut in early-to-mid 2025 (Globes).
- Reason cited: downsizing of the Lithuanian studio (acquired as part of the Melsoft acquisition in 2024 for ~$100 million), and a strategic focus on new game development.
- Despite “record revenues exceeding $2 billion” in 2024, the company is restructuring around future titles rather than current headcount.
- LinkedIn data (per Globes) shows Moon Active’s employee count shrank 13% in the year prior to the January 2026 round, before accounting for the new cut.
The combination of record revenue and layoffs is explained by the Melsoft integration: Moon Active acquired the Lithuanian studio primarily for its technology and IP, not its headcount, and is consolidating duplicated roles.
