Summary

Ubisoft has informed staff of a proposal to close its Finnish studio RedLynx, a move the company says could impact up to 52 positions, and announced planned job cuts at Ubisoft Singapore affecting 70 positions to align the studio with upcoming production needs. The RedLynx closure is subject to local change negotiation processes and RedLynx is not believed to be assigned to current projects. Ubisoft framed the actions as part of broader cost-reduction and restructuring measures following weaker share performance, including prior studio closures, game cancellations and other workforce reductions. The company said Ubisoft Singapore will remain open and is an important part of its global production organisation, and that it will support affected employees through the process.

Ubisoft cut 70 jobs affecting its Ubisoft Singapore (team that led development on Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced) team.

That is roughly 0.4% of the 18,000 people Ubisoft employs.
