Ubisoft announced it has laid off 45 more of its employees. The job cuts affected people in its San Francisco and Cary, North Carolina offices, the latter of which includes Red Storm team members.
The trend of layoffs at major video game developers and publishers continued this week, this time affecting a number of people working at Ubisoft. Bloomberg reported that 45 team members from that company were laid off on Friday.
Some were located at Ubisoft’s San Fransico offices, and the rest were in Cary, North Carolina, the location of the publisher’s Red Storm Entertainment development studio.
A Ubisoft spokesperson told Bloomberg:
This difficult yet necessary decision was made to align these studios’ organizations with their future business and development objectives.
