More than 1,200 Ubisoft employees took part in a coordinated three-day strike in response to a recent corporate reorganisation that saw several studios closed and multiple projects cancelled. The industrial action began on 10 February and continued through 12 February, with the largest demonstrations concentrated in Paris and smaller actions reported in Milan.

  • Participants: At least 1,200 staff across Ubisoft locations joined the walkout.
  • Duration: The strike ran for three days, starting 10 February and concluding on 12 February.
  • Cause: The protest was sparked by a wide-ranging restructuring announced late last month that included studio closures and the cancellation of six in-development games.
  • Locations and organisation: Most activity occurred in Paris, organised in part by the Solidaires Informatique union; Milan also saw additional demonstrations.
