Ubisoft shares have fallen sharply in recent months. Action-adventure title was supposed to improve the situation Star Wars Criminalsbut Kay Vess’s venture did not bring the desired results. From this, the French company concluded that it needed to improve efficiency and at the same time please players.
Yes, from the statement CEO Yves Guillemot This means that the company has realized something important. Players are tired of low-quality and unfinished games. Polished games sell much better. Thanks to this, Ubisoft should gradually make changes in the short and long term.
In the first case we are talking about Star Wars: Outlaws Fixes and Improvementsand also about Returning games to Steam on release day And Assassin’s Creed: Shadows port November/November 2024 to February/February 2025. This will give the developers more time to polish the feudal Japan experience with two heroes with different playstyles. Priority access to the game through the Season Pass has also been removed, with the first story expansion being made available as a pre-order bonus.
“In light of the recent challenges, we recognise the need to achieve greater efficiency while still delivering enjoyment to our players. As a result, in addition to the important short-term measures already taken, the Clarification Committee, with the participation of the Supervisory Board, will launch a review to further improve our operations, particularly in matters related to our approach to players, and accelerate the implementation of a strategy that ensures the best value model for our shareholders and stakeholders.” — Guillemot said.
According to him, Ubisoft is primarily focused on entertainment and creating games for the widest possible audience. “Our goal is not to advance any particular agenda.We remain committed to creating games for fans and players that everyone can enjoy.” added the CEO. This was probably a response to player complaints that Ubisoft puts too much awakening ideology into its games. But one thing is for sure: Ubisoft will definitely not be changing Yasuke in AC Shadows. He will continue to be the black samurai.
Only time will tell if Ubisoft (and other companies) learn this lesson and start making and releasing games that players actually enjoy. Personally, I’m interested to see if Assassin’s Creed: Shadows and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2The Czech medieval RPG from Prague-based Warhorse Studios was previously confirmed for February 11, 2025, while Ubisoft wants to launch Shadows three days later.
