#Ubisoft tells workers to ask:
“If these actions were publicly disclosed by the media, how would they reflect on me or on Ubisoft?”
A studio was closed weeks after #union certification.
If that doesn’t sit right with you, here’s a way to speak up:

Executives speak of “sustainable growth.”
Workers are asking for sustainable studios: predictable leadership, stable teams, and long-term planning.
Stability isn’t the opposite of growth. It’s the foundation for it.

In her latest for Game Developer, @nicolecarpenter.bsky.social asked industry analysts to break down what on earth is going on at Ubisoft and explain why execs are obsessed with two words that always seem to follow layoffs and closures: 'sutstainable growth.'
Analysts on Ubisoft and the myth of sustainable growth
'Public companies, especially in our industry, have drastically over-prioritized shareholders among other stakeholder groups.'

If this is what “open and constructive dialogue” looks like, it may be time to listen more closely.
When 1,200 workers strike, they’re not unclear, they’re communicating.

Remember when Ubisoft got a bunch of Tencent money, bought a studio off Amazon, and then closed one of their existing studios a month later?
We remember.

Ubisoft has acquired the rights to the upcoming free-to-play MOBA 'March of Giants' from Amazon, along with the development team at Amazon Games Montreal.
The creative director of the game previously served as Creative Director on Ubisoft’s Rainbow Six Siege before leaving for Amazon in 2020.

One thing you learn quickly when you unionize:it’s never just you and your coworkers.
It’s workers supporting workers, across studios and borders.

This hits close to the heart:
Devs at Intrepid Studios report layoffs without final pay, WARN Act compensation, or PTO payouts.
This is why game workers organize: when studios fail, unions mean leverage, transparency, and support.
We wish the best for all affected.
