Visionary Realms CEO Chris Rowan admitted that recent combat and progression updates for Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen did not perform as expected. This led to a restructuring within the development team, resulting in unspecified layoffs. Robert Crane has been rehired as project manager to improve development processes. Rowan takes full responsibility for the management failures that allowed these issues to arise. The company plans to continue work on new zones and core game experiences while promising more open communication and an updated roadmap.
