Ubisoft Employees Fear Layoffs After Tencent Deal and New Subsidiary Formation

Ubisoft employees are rattled over the potential for mass layoffs—and they have every reason to be.

On Thursday, Ubisoft announced it is forming a new gaming subsidiary in partnership with Chinese tech giant Tencent. The new entity will house the company’s most valuable franchises, including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six along with select development studios. While the press release spins this as the start of a “bold new chapter,” internal reactions suggest that the only thing bold about this move is the level of uncertainty it has created for Ubisoft’s remaining workforce.

Jennifer Salke Out at Amazon Studios — Rings of Power Fallout Raises Questions as Amazon Eliminated Studio Head Position Entirely

Jennifer Salke, the longtime head of Amazon MGM Studios, is stepping down from her role in a major executive shakeup that raises more questions than it answers.

Ubisoft Forms €4 Billion Gaming Subsidiary With Chinese Tech Giant Tencent for Major IPs Like Assassin’s Creed Amid Reported Financial Devastation

Ubisoft Forms €4 Billion Gaming Subsidiary With Chinese Tech Giant Tencent for Major IPs Like Assassin’s Creed Amid Reported Financial Devastation

Ubisoft is hemorrhaging money. That much has been clear since the release of its catastrophic Q3 FY25 earnings report, which revealed a company in freefall.
