GameSpot Faces Fifth Round of Cuts Under Fandom

Fandom laid off GameSpot's entire commerce team (4 staffers and 5 freelancers) and the site's VP of games and entertainment, Chris Grant, marking the fifth round of layoffs since Fandom acquired GameSpot in 2022. One employee was on paid medical leave following a gunshot injury, and the shakeup continues a broader pattern of staffing cuts across Fandom's properties, including past moves at Giant Bomb.
