Ubisoft Just Laid Off 60 Employees Without Notice

gameranx.com:

The news of layoffs continues today as we just reported about Final Strike Games laying off several of its staff. However, employees within Ubisoft woke up today without any notice that their jobs were taken. It seems that the staff in the US and UK might feel that their footing might not be as secure. Here is what we know so far about the recent layoffs within Ubisoft. 

Thanks to a report from Gamespot, we’re finding out that Ubisoft has just laid off 60 staffers within their Ubisoft’s Customer Relations Center team. According to the report, it seems that this is Ubisoft’s way to focus on where they can have a significant impact while remaining steadfast in their commitment to support their players anywhere around the world. Unfortunately, while this might be Ubisoft’s statement and view going forward, it’s rough to hear that no notice was given to the employees.

For instance, Matthew Hayes took to Twitter and alerted their followers that Ubisoft didn’t give any notice. So the fact that he no longer has employment means a struggle to find a new lead. Of course, this year, in general, for Ubisoft has not been a positive one. We have seen several instances where the company was struggling to keep up. In fact, this is not the only Ubisoft story to come out today. Just earlier, we reported on a rumor that suggested Ubisoft is pushing back their release for Assassin’s Creed Mirage and the Assassin’s Creed VR game.

I (and about 60 other amazing people) were laid off today with no notice. I'm divorced, living alone with a mortgage, and have a daughter who I love and support, so if any of you have any leads, please reach out. Thank you so much. <3

Furthermore, there were initially plans to have a big showcase at E3 2023. They
