"This is not how I imagined it would end": Ubisoft to lay off Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced devs at its Barcelona studio, with one calling the remake's release "bittersweet"
Ubisoft Barcelona is laying off 51 employees, including the entire team that worked on Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced. Despite the remake's successful launch and positive reception, the studio was informed of the collective redundancy plan two weeks before release. Vantage Studios, a Ubisoft-Tencent conglomerate, stated there would be no further mandates for the Barcelona studio, even though the team proposed new Assassin's Creed projects.
