Dear Daybreak Community,
There has been some confusion concerning Daybreak’s ownership and rumors about the state of the company that have circulated from a few online game websites, and we want to set the record straight. We assure you that these rumors are entirely false and that there’s no impact on our business or games in any way whatsoever.
From the get-go, Daybreak has been primarily owned by Jason Epstein, a longtime investor who also has investments in a variety of media properties. Jason acquired Daybreak (formerly SOE) in February 2015 and has been the executive chairman and majority owner of the company since that time.
We’re well aware of prior statements from Daybreak indicating our company was acquired by Columbus Nova. We have since clarified that the company was acquired by Jason Epstein when he was a partner at Columbus Nova, which he left in 2017. We’ve also taken steps to clarify those facts on our website and on third-party internet sites to ensure that all of the information currently made available is consistent and accurate.
We apologize for the previous miscommunication and hope that this clears up any confusion. As always, we greatly appreciate your continued support for our games, and we'll continue to work hard to bring the best experiences to you.

This is sounding like more than just some layoffs. I know people who have been there 18+ years who were shown the door with zero warning.

Yeah I got wind early this week that some execs were leaving and there was going to be layoffs later in the week before the other news broke about the russia stuff. It sounded like it was affecting the H1 team but now I'm assuming it's affecting more than just that team. I have no info on the size of the layoffs and who are all affected. Just seeing messages from other devs reaching out to them that it happened today.
