Command & Conquer 4 team rumoured to be laid off following completion of the title.

Kotaku reports that EA studios Pandemic, Maxis and the Command & Conquer team are all expected to be affected by planned staff cuts at EA.

Anonymous sources have indicated to Kotaku that almost the entire Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight development team has been told they will be let go by the publisher once the title is completed.

Substantial lay offs are also expected at EA Maxis, Pandemic Studios LA and Rupture Studios. Staff that aren't released will be relocated to EA headquarters in LA and Redwood Shores.

The publisher is yet to comment.
