US publisher / developer LucasArts has confirmed that it has made 29 staff at its San Rafael offices in California redundant, bringing the head count at the company, which has cancelled several projects in recent months, under the 400 mark.

Employees were apparently informed of the layoffs at a meeting at the end of last week, and a spokesperson for LucasArts told US website GameSpot that the cutbacks were designed to "bring studio staffing levels into line with the current development slate."
