After news of the cancellation of several projects, including the highly anticipated Prince of Persia remake, Ubisoft has now announced plans for a new round of layoffs. The French video game giant continues to restructure amid persistent financial challenges, multiple studio closures, and the cancellation of several high-profile projects. The latest proposed job cuts follow a turbulent 2025 that saw the company shut down three studios and scrap key titles, deepening investor concerns about its long-term turnaround strategy.
