Ubisoft is making one of the biggest internal shakeups in its history — and it could either save the company… or seriously backfire.

We break down Ubisoft’s decision to split its studios into five separate “houses,” cancel six projects, and delay major releases like the Black Flag remake to 2027. We talk about what this means for Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, Rainbow Six, Prince of Persia, Rayman, and even why Watch Dogs is suspiciously missing from the lineup.

Is this restructuring a smart way to focus talent and stop burning resources?
Or is Ubisoft quietly shrinking while hoping nobody notices?

We also dive into:
- Why Assassin’s Creed doesn’t need to be annual anymore
- The surprising survival of Skull and Bones
- Whether Ubisoft’s famous “formula” is helping or hurting them
- How separating casual/mobile games could finally help core franchises thrive

If you’re a Ubisoft fan — or worried about where AAA gaming is heading — this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Is Ubisoft fixing its biggest problem… or creating a new one?
