Continuing the drama surrounding the game, P2 Entertainment (formerly Perpetual Entertainment) will be laying off members of the Star Trek Online development team today, according to sources within the company.

Coinciding with our earlier rumor regarding the acquisition of the license by City of Heroes/Villains creator Cryptic Studios, the firm has begun interviewing P2 staff members for "positions on unannounced projects."

We can't yet confirm that this indicates a continuation of the game's development at Cryptic, but it certainly hints in that direction.

This news comes as little surprise given P2's recent announcement that development on the title had "largely stopped."
