Rockstar Vancouver, one of the main developers behind Max Payne 3, have been shut down. Not to worry (much): the staff are being offered jobs at Rockstar’s other Canadian studio in Toronto, which is expanding thanks to the help of regional government support. Full press release here. [Note: This story originally pegged the Vancouver team as the lead studio on Max Payne 3, but the 35-person team was actually one of many Rockstar groups who did significant work on the game, the company tells Kotaku.]
