Ubisoft has confirmed that it's cut 45 positions as part of its latest round of cuts. The jobs were cut in efforts to "[reorganize] our Global Publishing central and [Asia-Pacific] structures" and to "enhance our collective efficiency."

The layoffs hit the company's global publishing and Asia-Pacific divisions.

Early reports are they are all inconsolable

I sure hope the layoffs were a multicultural bunch full of various beliefs, gender identities, and sexual orientiations.

A google check says they got 19,000 employees. 45 isn’t the end of the world folks.

Inevitable Skull & Bones fallout?

That was predominantly a Ubi Asia game wasn’t it?

I hope they were not Montpellier employees. The lost crown is actually one of the rare good Ubisoft title from recent years.

Diversity layoff are only what they wanted during the hiring process.

It's called "statistically insignificant".

Wow 45 people, that's half of Skull & Bones' playerbase!
