Content:	Ubisoft has confirmed a restructuring of its teams, which includes cutting nine roles, mostly from its publishing department, as part of efforts to ensure a successful launch of its new subsidiary. The company announced the move in a statement to GamesIndustry.biz, revealing that the decision was made to streamline operations ahead of the subsidiary's introduction. “With the formation of a new Ubisoft subsidiary, we’ve made strategic structural decisions to ensure a smooth and swift launch,” Ubisoft said in its statement. “As part of this, some of our production and publishing teams will be transitioned to other Ubisoft brands and projects. Unfortunately, nine roles, primarily within our publishing team, are directly impacted. We are committed to providing support to everyone affected by this change.” The restructuring is tied to [[Companies/Ubisoft\|Ubisoft]]'s broader strategy to accelerate its transformation, which was first revealed in March 2025 when the company announced the creation of a new subsidiary focused on key franchises such as Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six. The subsidiary is backed by a €1.16 billion ($1.25 billion) minority investment from Chinese tech giant Tencent. This move is expected to expand the franchises into more robust, multiplatform ecosystems. The new subsidiary will be led by co-CEOs Christophe Derennes, Ubisoft’s former North American managing director, and Charlie Guillemot, the son of Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot. This restructuring comes on the heels of Ubisoft’s recent financial struggles. In its first-quarter results for the 2025-26 fiscal year, the company reported earnings that fell “below expectations,” with revenue down 3.9% year-on-year. The performance of Rainbow Six: Siege was also “lower-than-expected,” further underscoring the challenges Ubisoft is facing.
