Game Industry International has reported that video game retailer GAME will be forced to close 60 of its stores in Australia.
Unfortunately, this will be at a cost of 264 jobs. 17 head office positions will also be gone.
“This is a difficult time for employees and closing the stores was not a decision we made easily,” said Kate Warwick of PricewaterhouseCoopers. “However it is not financially viable to continue to operate at this level at this time.”
Here are the 60 stores that will be closing:
