32 staff from across the studio were released.
Reports said up to 32 staff received redundancy or at-risk notices, not that 32 were definitively released.
Full reasoning
Coverage of ZA/UM’s July 2026 announcement says the studio served redundancy or at-risk notices impacting up to 32 employees. That is more tentative than saying 32 staff were released, which overstates what was publicly confirmed.
In other words:
- the reported number was up to 32, not a confirmed final total;
- and the company described the action as redundancy or at-risk notices, not a completed release of exactly 32 staff members.

ZA/UM revealed C4 as Zero Parades in March 2025
In March 2025 ZA/UM announced the game as PROJECT [C4], not as Zero Parades.
Full reasoning
The March 11, 2025 announcement identified the game as PROJECT [C4], not Zero Parades. Coverage from that date explicitly says ZA/UM announced PROJECT [C4]. A later official reveal trailer used the title Zero Parades - For Dead Spies and was published on September 24, 2025.
So the article compresses two separate events into one and gets the March 2025 title reveal wrong.
