Ubisoft cancels team battle game 'Project Q

Published by Engadget on Thu, 19 Jan 2023


Ubisoft has identified one of the three games it cancelled last week.

A labor union called for a strike at Ubisoft Paris after CEO Yves Guillemot made statements suggesting rank-and-file staff, not leadership, had to be "especially careful" with money.

However, the incident apparently underscored the rift between management and employees ' one that may not be mended in the near future.
