Summary
Following the launch of Black Flag Resynced, Ubisoft confirmed layoffs affecting roughly 30 developers at a studio in the Paris/Montreuil area. Developers and union representatives reported that around 30 staff were let go from the team that worked on the remaster, prompting criticism and accusations that Ubisoft treated the studio poorly after release. The cuts appear focused on the smaller development group behind the project rather than a company-wide reduction, and they come amid ongoing tensions between Ubisoft management and some development teams. Sources cited employee statements and local reporting; Ubisoft provided limited comment in response to the reports.
