Ubisoft announced a major restructuring in early 2026, including the cancellation of several projects (notably a Prince of Persia remake) and the closure of studios in Halifax and Stockholm as part of a broader cost-cutting and realignment effort. This move also involved delaying multiple titles and reorganizing into new “Creative Houses” focused on specific genres.

In parallel, Ubisoft faced ongoing financial and strategic scrutiny with reports of delayed earnings in late 2025 and ongoing acquisition rumors, though official communications emphasized performance and restructuring rather than an imminent sale. Industry coverage noted investor uncertainty and discussions around potential buyers, with several outlets aggregating the situation around November 2025.
