Following a series of Missfire, Ubisoft shuts down the support studio and downsizes elsewhere. Ubisoft Leamington, located in the Royal League Mint Spring, British, has no more because the publisher has abandoned 50 studios. We are also firing Stockholm employees. Germany, Dusseldorf; Ubisoft Reflections in the UK.
“UbisoftDüssseldorf, Ubisoft Stockholm, Ubisoft Reflements, Ubisoft Reflements, as part of the continuous initiatives With the permanent closure of Amington Site We announced the reconstruction of “Unfortunately, we are deeply grateful to the total of 185 employees. I’m committed to doing it.
Ubisoft purchased Leamington Studio from Activision in 2017. Previously, it was known as FreeStylegames. The team was behind Guitar Hero Live and DJ HERO series. Since participating in Ubisoft, the studio has supported the development of Tom Clancy’s THE DIVISION GAMES, Star Wars Outlaws, and Skull and Bones and Far Cry 5.
The situation is turbulent because Ubisoft deals with some low -performance radioactive drops, such as the STARS OUTLAWS, which has not achieved sales targets. Prince of Persian: Lost Crown has not expressed Ubisoft’s expectation, and the company has relocated many of the game developers to other teams. Ubisoft also closed Xdefiant in the next few months, and publishers closed three studios and fired 277 workers as part of their decision. As EUROGAMER pointed out, Ubisoft’s personnel dropped from 20,279 to 18,666 by the end of September.
Perhaps in line with these recent problems, there have been many reports that Ubisoft is looking for buyers or creates a joint venture with a part of the assets. Earlier this month (PDF) stated that “PDF will continue to promote significant cost reductions,” he said, “In order to extract the optimal value for stakeholders, we have reviewed various transformed strategic and capitalist options. He appointed a major advisor to pursue. “
It’s enough to say, there are many things in the shadow of the assassin’s beliefs in the future. Assassin’s Creed is a series that can definitely bank for Ubisoft, and is definitely the company’s flagship franchise at this point. Based on my early impressions, the game looks good enough, the company has played enough to need it, and it seems to be compatible with both fans and newcomers in the series for many years. Shadows can succeed for the company, but it’s a strong tall order for one game to make one game as big and unstable as Ubisoft.
