That figure is dramatically smaller than some of Valve’s biggest competitors.

There are 20,000 staff acrossMicrosoft’s many studios, and just shy of that number atUbisoft.

By contrast, there were still nearly 200 devs working directly on games.

Perhaps with the eventual arrival ofDeadlock, however, that might change.
