"Activision continually evaluates the resources at our studio properties to ensure that they are properly matched to our product slate and overall strategic goals," said a statement from Activision.
"As part of this process, we recently made the difficult but necessary decision to close Shaba Studios. We are grateful for the studio's contributions and wish this talented team success in their future endeavours."
