Ubisoft recently announced the appointment of leading advisors to explore strategic options amidst a potential buyout. The company also declared a further delay in the release of 'Assasin’s Creed Shadows'.

Ubisoft's Advisory Appointment

Ubisoft has sought advisors aiming to secure the best offer for its stakeholders ahead of a potential buyout. This step followed discussions with Chinese company Tencent Holdings and the Guillemot family about a takeover. Ubisoft's shares rose by over 30% after the buyout revelation. CEO Yves Guillemot expressed confidence in the company's assets and franchises generating more income.

Delay in 'Assasin’s Creed Shadows' Release

The company also announced an additional delay in the release of its latest game 'Assasin’s Creed Shadows', now set for March 20, 2025. Ubisoft explained that the extra time is needed to incorporate player feedback and refine gameplay.

Ubisoft's Financial Position

Ubisoft also revealed plans to cut costs by over 200 million euros and intends to adopt a more selective investment approach. The company continues to implement structural changes aimed at increasing efficiency, reflected in recent workforce reductions. Financial results remain under pressure due to poor sales and delays in new game releases.

Ubisoft is on the brink of significant changes, engaging advisors to explore strategic options and negotiating a potential buyout. Meanwhile, the company faces several financial challenges and is adjusting its product release plans.
