Tencent and Guillemot Family Planning Ubisoft Buyout
In a new report today from Bloomberg (via GamesIndustry.biz), it's alleged that Tencent and the Guillemot family are reportedly planning on buying out Ubisoft. This comes after Ubisoft has repeatedly landed itself in hot water, not just with gamers but also with shareholders. Shareholders have been urging them to restructure the company for a long time now, but there has been no news from Ubisoft as to whether they are going to do that. Now, Tencent and Guillemot Brothers Ltd have been looking into ways to stabilize the company. With how badly Ubisoft is doing, it's possible that the companies will team up to buy out the publisher and take it private.
