Square Enix just nuked their workforce.
After a brutal financial report and years of declining sales, the company now plans to replace 70% of their QA and testing staff with AI by 2027.

This comes right after massive layoffs across their U.S. and European branches — and it’s clear: Square Enix is trying to save money, not save creativity.

In this video, we’re breaking down:

The collapse of Square Enix’s financials (sales down 15%)

The aging fanbase problem — average Final Fantasy player is 42

How Japan is taking full control after years of failed “Westernization”

And why replacing devs with AI might be the company’s final mistake

Square says this is a “reboot.”
But when you start firing humans to hire robots… that’s not a reboot.
That’s the beginning of the end.

👇 What do YOU think — can Square Enix recover, or are they officially cooked?
