Wait, this idiot just wised up to the idea that 2023 is crucial? Well fuck! if he had been running every year as crucial Ubi wouldn’t be in this state. This clown needs to be removed. Isn’t there someone in France that can take over?
This 'idiot' runs the most successful European game companies, which is also one of the oldest active ones in Europe, and one of the biggest 3rd party companies in the world.
Kept improving their revenue during many years being most of them profitable, and employs over 20000 people located in around 40 offices spread around the world.
Had a bad year after getting impacted by covid, some important projects got delayed and a handful underperformed, so they had a bad year or two and that affected their stocks and now they need to do some adjustments to reduce some costs, like canning a few games in early stages of development. That's all, nothing dramatic or special. They'll recover once a handful of the many games they have under development becomes a huge success, as usual in many of their games.
Tencent, the most successful gaming company in the world, recently did invest on them securing that the Guillemots had full control of the company to secure it against unwanted acquisitions. And if they did it, it's after looking at their current state and projects under development and considering that their mid and long term plans and projects are promising.
So no, he won't be removed because he and his family has full control and because there's no reason to do it. He'll retire once he considers it's the time to do so (he's 62 years old) but I don't see that happening soon.
