After announcing a reboot, 17 members of the FaZe Clan have revealed they’ve been laid off in an attempt to “keep the company alive” while also making the team smaller.
Following the news that FaZe Clan had terminated 110 employees to keep the company alive, fans were shocked to learn that they’d also decided to cut the contracts of several of its most long-serving content creators in an attempt to create a smaller team of just 14 members.
Many of these creators had been part of the organization for several years, some even dating back to the clan’s inception in 2010.
Which FaZe Clan members have been laid off?
On April 28, it was announced that six more people had been laid off from the FaZe clan. This comes after 11 members had been laid off since December 2023 following the reboot announcement.
