CEO Yves Guillemot on next-gen price tags, Wii U support, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon passing 500,000 sold
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.
Normal.
Sounds funny coming from them when they put the worse DRMs ever in The Settlers 3 and Assassin's Creed 2 PC.
I think they know their horrible mistakes and they are fixing them this is good for the entire industry.
I wonder what Cliff has to say about this now that "Ubisoft" agrees with the reversal. Remember how Cliff used Assassin's Creed as an example that game costs too much to make and used games would simply put a burden on developers?
