Ubisoft is delaying the release of several major projects following the success of Assassin's Creed Shadows, aiming to cut costs by at least €100 million and have completed layoffs of 3,000 employees since September 2022.
The company's CEO, Yves Guillemot, describes the past year as challenging with earnings slightly below objective, but highlights the discipline applied across the organization for remaining in a strong position.
Despite completing cost-cutting plans ahead of schedule, Ubisoft plans to save an additional €100 million over the next two years, which might lead to further job losses.
Ubisoft is establishing a Tencent-backed subsidiary to oversee development of future Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six games, with delayed major productions expected in FY2026-27 and FY2027-28.
