Star Wars Zero Company studio start to bring back devs furloughed prior to launch, with "more than half" of previous headcount reportedly returning to payroll Bit Reactor say they'll "bring as many people back as possible" Star Wars Zero Company developers Bit Reactor have begun to put some of the developers they furloughed prior to the game's release back on payroll. Thus far, the number of staff on payroll at the studio has reportedly returned to "more than half" of what it was prior to the furloughs, with Bit Reactor boss Greg Foertsch asserting that they hope to "eventually bring as many people back as possible". "Having to ask team members to step away after we navigated unexpected business developments outside of our control and so close to launch was an incredibly difficult decision, but one that was necessary to help us eventually bring as many people back as possible," Foertsch wrote in a statement posted to Bit Reactor's socials.
