No one wanted them...

The IPs are worth it, the talent at the studios as well. They just need better direction. Their gameplay and graphics can still be top notch. They just have too much bloat in their games and need to take risks again.

If I had unlimited time I'd play more ubisoft games but I don't. I like their stories tho.

I mean sure... but they have been stagnant for a long time

So who’s getting Ubisoft? I’m betting on either the sheiks, Microsoft, or Tencent.

Hopefully Microsoft
