MCV:We have been told that the French firm is keen to take over the publisher's brands and studios once THQ works through its current financial problems.

Insider Gaming - "Ubisoft has cancelled yet another game, this time ending development on the Animal Crossing-inspired title Alterra."

HALIFAX (April 14, 2026) – Laid-off Ubisoft workers in Halifax have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a settlement with the video-game giant. The terms of the settlement, including the compensation employees will receive, is confidential.
I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.
Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.
But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.

Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.
Those franchises would help Ubisoft become one step closer to becoming one of the big publishers
I APPROVE!
DO IT UBISOFT!
But who would take the new unannounced games? Some great potential in them.
Not to mention the publishing right to South Park and Metro.
Yes. Excellent. better them than EA or Activision.
Meh dont want Ubisoft to own Relic. Ubisoft killed heroes of might and magic and hasnt made a single decent rts this gen.
Nooooooooo! They will ruin Company of Heroes!!! They are not friends of PC gamers!
