After earlier reports outlining EA's plans to fire 400 and close nine studios, it seems the first outfit to be axed is Need for Speed developer Black Box.

According to IGN, many of the studio's staff are being relocated to EA's Burnaby facility in British Columbia.

Apparently the closure will not be immediate, meaning SKATE 2's development should remain unhindered. Full thing through the link.
