You think this deal all came together in a week?

This deal started rolling when they pushed it back the first time, I'd bet

They are trying soo hard.

Same people were glazing Star Wars Outlaws, until they just couldn't lie to themselves anymore

I am a fan of Ubisoft

Far Cry, Splinter Cell, Anno, and AC are among my favorite game franchises.

That is why I am so mad at how poorly they have operated the last 5 or so years

Huh? Do you also not know how a minor investment works? All Tencent did was give Ubi money to keep going as is. You should really read more before you post stuff.

quote:

Ubisoft reaches deal with Tencent to create $4.3 billion mini-Ubisoft subsidiary to "spearhead development" on new Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six games

The new subsidiary will "remain exclusively controlled and consolidated by Ubisoft"


quote:

The new subsidiary will "include the teams developing the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six, Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry franchises based in Montréal, Quebec, Sherbrooke, Saguenay, Barcelona, and Sofia as well as the back-catalog and any new games currently under development or to be developed."

I said it would sell well. . .I've said that all along to my knowledge

Not sure how well it is selling, but it allegedly has a high player count

Last I heard was a combined million units sold on PS5 and Steam. If true, that is a decent start.

Or are you just that triggered

Yes.

But now I am curious what YOU think it means. . .

You should really read more before you post stuff.

quote:

Details on how exactly this will impact Ubisoft going forward haven't been revealed: The new subsidiary will include Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six development teams in Montreal, Quebec, Sherbrooke, Saguenay, Barcelona, and Sofia, for instance, but the number of employees who will transfer over to the new entityt—or, it must be said, be laid off—remains to be determined. Ubisoft said it will have more information to share "in the coming months." The agreement is also subject to regulatory approval: The announcement says the transaction is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

It means exactly what I posted. Tencent gave Ubi an investment to keep going on those titles as is for years to come. Meaning new AC games, Rainbow games, and Far Cry games and from the same studios already making them.

Obviously you wanted Ubi to crumble and be sold off but that is now completely off the table and things continue on largely unchanged.

Ahh

So you don't know what that means

You think that going from 13% to 25% investment comes with no changes or authority?

Tencent is just going to be hands off here?

Wait

Oh

See, I thought you were being serious, I didn't catch that you are kidding

Good one.

I mostly ignore this thread due to all the bickering, but Big Dan ran a video recently talking about the illusion of choice in the game, and it was fairly damning. Just nothing the player does mattering, at all. The narrative plays out identically, regardless. Which is pretty shitty.
