Ubisoft Conducts Global Job Cuts Amid Restructuring

Ubisoft announced it has cut roughly 1,000 jobs as part of a company-wide restructuring and cost-saving effort. The layoffs are tied to a strategic shift in development priorities and follow weaker-than-expected financial results, even as releases like the Assassin’s Creed remake performed strongly. Management said the reductions are intended to streamline operations and focus investment on fewer, larger titles. The company indicated the cuts affect multiple studios and roles globally as it rebalances its workforce to match future product plans.
