Report: Telltale Has Let Go Its Remaining Developers
It's an understatement to say that the people working at Telltale have had a horrendous past month after the company let 225 employees go without severance. It was initially reported that a skeleton crew was staying on to finish "fulfill the company's obligations to its board and partners."
Today, one of Telltale's Narrative Designers, Rachel Noel, has revealed that the company has let go of the remaining employees:
Heeeeyyyy remember how there was going to be a skeleton crew staying on for a while and I was part of it? Nah, jk, we all just got laid off, too.

Telltale itself has yet to release a statement or an update on its search for finding partners to complete The Walking Dead's final season, which is currently in limbo.
