The Driveclub development team that together with Codemasters recently released its new racing game, OnRush is in a particularly strong position difficult after the disappointing commercial course of his new game. Specifically, dozens of developers were fired from the most famous Codemasters Evo . Among other things, Paul Paul "Rushy" Rustchynsky who played a decisive role in both games and was the main spokesman of the group, is the past .

A Codemasters representative stated:

It is the natural course in the industry that development teams evolve as projects move and make the transition to services, or while other projects are starting.

The already known Evolution Studios were acquired by Codemasters in 2016 when Sony decided to close the studio. The sources of Eurogamer who want to keep anonymity say that the studio is practically "beheaded" and the most likely scenario is that the band will now have an auxiliary role alongside the other Codemasters

OnRush released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on June 5th, and its commercial course was disappointing. The title appeared in position 34 of the UK Charts in its launch week, then completely lost in the charts. Sources claim that the title only sold 1000 copies during its first week in the United Kingdom
