Events continue to unfold after Ubisoft revealed grim prospects for 2023. Earlier this month, it canceled three games and delayed two more as part of a new policy<\/a> to cut costs and save around $216 million over the next two years.<\/p>
“M. Guillemot attempts to shift the blame on employees… he wants us to ‘give our best’, which means working overtime, burnout and so on,” the union said in a press release<\/a>. It also blamed the CEO for sitting on the fence regarding potential layoffs and other cost-cutting methods.<\/p>
The following day, Guillemot apologized during a Q&A session made to appease employees and clarify the situation. “I heard your feedback and I’m sorry this was perceived that way,”\u00a0he reportedly said, according to Kotaku<\/a>.<\/p>
