Pandemic Studios closing down today?

Rumor has it that Electronic Arts will be adding more people to its list of cut employees. The target? Pandemic Studios.

Kotaku reports that several sources have intimated that almost all of the studio’s staff in Los Angeles will be let go today. That’s around 200 people. Those few left will reportedly be absorbed into other EA dev teams.

It’s not yet official but it’s a shame, especially since Pandemic’s new game, The Saboteur (PC, PS3, and Xbox 360), isn’t even out yet.

• EA sacks 1,500, cans 12 unannounced projects
• Pandemic’s The Saboteur will be released this year after all
