They've been pumping generic after generic open-world game, this trend died a while ago.

All eyes on AC: Shadows, which will be their biggest game for quite some time.
Also, this is pretty rough for Massive Entertainment since both Avatar and Star Wars had to take into account the royalties from Disney for both games. Also The Division 3 is not coming any time soon.

but i thoguht everyone wanted single player games
Good single player games.
Ubisoft falling to under $2B market cap has a lot more to do with Ubisoft as a company as opposed to just Outlaws. Their XDeviant game seems to be collapsing as Ubisoft keeps trying to chase that Fortnite money, their games just haven't hit like they did last generation outside of Valhalla.
Personally, as a Ubisoft fanboy, they've definitely declined and have disappointed me thus far this generation when compared to last generation. Immortals Fenyx Rising is their best release thus far this generation and of course, they cancelled the sequel. They also cancelled The Division Heartland which I was really looking forward to as a stopgap until The Division 3 which im expecting to be a full fledged next generation game which is perfectly fine by me.
As for Outlaws, I will be playing it via Ubisoft+ in November after Dragon Age: The Veilguard followed by Assassin's Creed Shadows also via Ubisoft+.
NOTE: While Ubisoft would probably be a prime candidate for a Microsoft acquisition right now, they can't be acquired for 15 years due to the contract they have in regards to cloud streaming rights in Europe if I remember correctly.

Ubisoft is a cheap acquisition with some premium ip there would be a ton of layoffs just because there bloated asf but AC, Tom Clancy, Far Cry for 2 billion is worth it + some mobile developers that have made pretty good games such as the new Invincible mobile game.
Wouldn’t be surprise if somebody swooped in.
Also Xdefiant should’ve just been Rainbow Six Siege but COD gameplay. Not sure why they decided to not use the long list of already beloved & existing characters from R6 there wouldve been a lot more hype & intrest seeing R6 siege characters be translated to a faster pace COD like type gameplay

Goalpost moving.
No they aren’t they are a multinational company with over 20k employees

Ubisoft went Day 1 on a subscription for all their games, which is an awful decision, but the actual game is just so frustrating the WOM is bad.
I can't deal with all this mandatory stealth in a huge base with guards everywhere. You get caught and you have to restart the whole mission. It's BRUTAL
I'm playing on Story mode and I still have to restart each mission 100 times because the guards see me all the way back with their supersonic vision
The game is so good outside of that. It's a shame.
Anyway, the Day 1 is also hurting a lot. There's an aura of bargain bin like Game Pass did for MS.

Who thought it was a good idea to put 2005-era insta-fail stealth mechanics into a game in 2024?Ubisoft went Day 1 on a subscription for all their games, which is an awful decision, but the actual game is just so frustrating the WOM is bad.

I had no idea they went Day 1 on subscription. So people are really dumb enough to fall for MS tacticslol
Ubisoft has to work hard to modify that image of trend chasers and extremely generic games. Their vision is failing. All that manpower must be put to better use.
Time for Sony to buy them, cut them to shreds, gut them, and salvage their IP. Assassin's Creed as a PlayStation exclusive? Nice

Don't care. Is it just me or games journalism is more and more starting to resemble local news. Bad news on loop whether or not it matters to me at all.
