Sony has confirmed a Bloomberg report saying that Bluepoint Games, the Sony-owned studio known for its remasters of games including Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls, is being closed in March. The shutdown will reportedly result in roughly 70 people being put out of work.

"Following a recent business review, the decision was made to close Bluepoint Games in March," a Sony representative told PC Gamer. "Bluepoint Games is an incredibly talented team and their technical expertise has delivered exceptional experiences for the PlayStation community. We thank them for their passion, creativity, and craftmanship."
