• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft implementing cost-reduction restructuring, cancelling various games and closing studios⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They say this new model for how Ubisoft works will be centred on “Open World Adventures and GaaS-native experiences, supported by targeted investments, deeper specialization, and cutting-edge technology” and of course “accelerated investments behind player-facing Generative AI”.

  I found under ‘Projects’ on the website it’s from March 2005 which makes sense given the mention of Kazaa in the introduction.
