The golems don't care. They'll give all their money to the enemy of the west/good.

chat is this real
if its real then it was already a long time coming

>>725755131 (OP)
Interesting find, OP. Ubi's shares have been eroding consistently and were almost below EUR 6/share. If you're still someone who's holding Ubi stock, you're probably praying for a buyout to recoup some of your lost cash.

>>725755131 (OP)
Funny, now Ubislop and Fromsoftware are owned by the same money hungry chinks.
It's beyond over.

>>725755131 (OP)
why would Tencent want to buy some useless company that generates loses like ubishit?

>>725755987
The I.P.'s, unironically. Tencent can get to work on Assassin's Creed MMORPG mobile instead of caring about what Ubisoft does with it.

>>725756062
Tencent already has the valuable IPs because Ubi spun them off into that separate holding company as part of Tencent's investments back in the summer.

>>725756062
you clearly don't understand how Tencent operates
they buy things that already work and can bring them free money, they don't want to waste money on something they'll have to work very hard to pay off

>>725756062
This. Were at the logical endpoint now of the Console arms race. What will happen now is IPs will be consoldiated into the hands of 3 to 5 companies who hold most of the major/popular IPs (Nintendo, Activision, Tencent, Sony, Microsoft ect.) What will happen next is sort of akin what happens with the movie industry where some IPs might just be sat on while others get dusted off every 5 to 10 years to see if they can make some money off the name. The most blackpilling thing about this isn't that some slop franchise like Assasains creed is being owned by Tencent no its that several of the smaller less known IPs that had promising futures now get put into the hands of a company thats highly unlikely to sell it (and do anything with them) unless they just would rather have the liquidity which companies often don't search for unless they are avoiding bankruptcy.

keep showeling gubmint money their way while the release shitty flop after shitty flop or just let them croak?

maybe we'll get Far Cry: China and it won't contain hideous women

ubisoft is a european company, it should stay european or at absolute worst north american

letting china gobble up more and more media will just end up with gen z and younger being massively brainwashed

if sayd western companies are already putrid garbage like ea and ubishit , why not? let the chinks fire all the niggers, lesbians and any activist there , if the company survives after well for them ifs not, better , a company run for and to niggers, lesbians and activists deserves to be closed or extremely changed

do you have any idea just how fucked the average tiktokers brain is?

Yes western media tends to be cucked beyond all means but it is china that will start a world war in our lifetimes, they should not have soft power to this degree

>>725756679
Actually, Ubi being European makes them really hard to acquire by non-EU entities because of EU economic laws.

It's actually over isn't it

wtf is going on ?

>>725758342
The west decided to destroy all of their soft power over the course of a decade by making all of their media shitty, gay, and lame.
This is the result.
You can add Warner Bros. to that list since the current rumor is that the Saudis are eyeing them as well.

>>725756679
>just let china buy all our companies, nothing could go wrong
yes. worst case, it goes from shit (currently) to shit (future). best case, their ips are actually used for some ggs.

>>725758342
the best part is they think they are buying gold lol
expect a couple of uninspired mobile cashgrabs and then nothing

>>725758264
Considering the wokies are often commies, that tracks.

>>725758448
>destroy all of their soft power over the course of a decade
It's true what they say: destruction is a lot easier than creation. Absolutely crazy shit to witness in real time

>>725756671
>Console arms race
Consoles have not driven innovation in a decade. Now they are a stamp of stagnation.

>>725756604
Fixing Ubisoft is very easy. They only need to fire 80% of the devs and 99% of all the non-dev positions. Do that, do no pajeets, and it will flourish.

>>725755131 (OP)
So ubisoft shares collapsed recently because insiders were informed.

I don't care if the chinks buy up a shitty video game company that only survived to long buy slurping up subsidies all over the world. You should get mad about the fucking europoors selling actual industries with real know how just so the chinese can dismantle everything here and transfer it to china. That shit should have never been allowed.

>>725755987
The head of Tencent finally wants to play Beyond Good and Evil 2.

>>725758769
>public trading will be halted until high level executives have privately liquidated their positions
many such cases!

>It’s unusual for any publicly traded company to postpone an earnings report so close to its scheduled release, and the move threatens to escalate concerns about recent setbacks that the company has suffered. In May, Ubisoft said it would need more time to develop some of its biggest titles and forecast no revenue growth for the fiscal year. Last year, Ubisoft pushed back the release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows to make improvements after a Star Wars franchise game received middling reviews.
>Ubisoft’s Chief Financial Officer Frederick Duguet had been due to host a media briefing call shortly before the market close in Paris on Thursday and ahead of the planned financial results later in the day. That call was postponed without explanation and then canceled.

>>725758342
It's the natural end to Capitalism. Oligarchy/Monopoly. Everyone sells out to make more money. Nationalism is irrelevant. If western shareholders can make more money selling their assets off to China/the Saudis, they will do it.

>>725757601
Holy fuck it just clicked to me it's now back on the table.

>>725757183
>letting china gobble up more and more media will just end up with gen z and younger being massively brainwashed

>>725755987
Ubi has several decades of actual goodness before their decline. Lots of gold to mine in those asset portfolios. And it gives Tencent a mask to wear to market that people who otherwise wouldn't touch a tencent product might fall for.

>>725759182
if you were really redpilled you'd know who and how this shit was pushed into western media

beware the yellow menace

>>725757370
Man i own a factory, and i would be really happy to sell it to chinese. Take the money and run. (((They))) have forced us to misery, with absurd laws, taxes and workers rights. Fuck europe.

>>725757520
>>725757530
This sounds like either complete bankruptcy. Only other thing I could see if them having a vote to sell the entire company to Tencent

Let it be a wake up call to companies out there:
This is the cost at which you sellout.

>>725755131 (OP)
Have we gone back in time? Didn't this already happen in spring?

And nothing of value was lost.

>>725759430
Jewish hands typed this post

>>725755131 (OP)
Didn't they just do a switcharoo where they put their best IPs into a new company funded by Tencent? No way they pissed away their bail out money already.

>>725756239
They had the valuable ones, but now they own it all.
And they'll be able to get French and EU tax credits too.

ubisoft isn't going bankrupt with that kind of financials you delusional fucks

>>725759531
Nah. Ubisoft handed Tencent their successful IPs like Asscreed in case of bankruptcy so they wouldn't be forced to sell them off. Its like giving someone else a chest full of cash because you may or may not be getting divorced.

>>725759531
>didn't this happen in the spring
Yes and no. As part of getting their asses saved by Tencent, Ubisoft created a subsidiary company and moved its valuable IPs out of Ubisoft and into there. (AC, Tom Clancy, whatever others they haven't killed yet). This effectively fucked over anyone who owns stock in Ubisoft itself, since the subsidiary is owned by Tencent and the Guillemots. Or something to that effect.

What seems to be happening now is either a prelude to a sale, or Ubi's finances for the last 6mo are so bad that reporting them would cause a panic sell off that would actually drive the stock price to $0 and blow up the company.

>>725759150
I fucking hope so, it's been way too long.

>>725759685
bro what has ubisoft done to right the ship?

Earlier this year I was so impressed with my experience with Star Wars Outlaws that I bought some stock in Ubi. Before today, I was down to about half of what I invested.

what has ubisoft done to right the ship?

IP is the most important thing when it comes to churning out AI games.

>>725760298
how is that relevant to the fact that they won't go bankrupt with that kind of financials you goalpost moving retard?

>>725756679
It's Ubisoft. Who. Gives. A. Fuck.

>>725760417

>>725760230
Considering the current state of ubisoft games being under chinese (or saudi even) couldn't be much worse.

>>725760424
its not just ubisoft
almost all medicine production has been shipped off to india and china

many tech companies including chip makers have been either bought out by china or been spied on

media aka soft power is massively being bought for by foreigners, saudi arabia, china, etc

Europe is killing itself for short term monetary gains and if the day comes china decides to kickstart ww3 we are completely fucked because of dependency on their production

>>725756679
>China and Saudi Arabia in buying wars
>America has shit the best in all media

We're fucked btw

>>725759920
Rayman was dormant because the devs behind it got busy with Beyond Good & Evil 2

Honestly, Ubisoft are not bad developers, they can make fun games (Rayman, Mario + rabbits and tons of others in the 5th gen). But they have terrible leadership pushing them to do the blandest shit in the industry. Maybe with different people at the helm they can put that up good use.

>>725756679
yes, China will save gaming

>>725761000
we're gonna get a leak eventually

>>725761008
Ubisoft is bloated as fuck (mostly them exploiting government gibs to create jobs) they have over 17000 employees. They are literally the worlds largest video game developer (I know their output literally doesn't reflect that number at all).

>>725759150
They've already expressed their intent to revive the Rayman brand a while ago, hopefully it doesn't get cancelled again. Wouldn't be the first time

>>725761204
rayman is literally in development by the prince of persia lost crown team

>>725756604

What the actual fuck am I witnessing. How is this sustainable lmao. Ubisoft should be releasing multiple AAA games every year holy fuck what are they doing over there.

>>725761282
itsuno is making a dmc clone not a dragons dogma clone

dmc is a safe bet

>>725761376
but he cited dragon's dogma as one of the inspirations for this new game

This doesn't surprise me all that much. Ubisoft didn't release any games in the quarter in question (July-September) or in the quarter before that (April-June) even this quarter all they've got is Just Dance and Anno 117.
The only games with estimated release dates are 2 Tom Clancy mobile games and a Prince of Persia remake (HoMM:Olden Era goes into EA next year with no actual release date estimate given)

Why did Avatar and star wars kill ubisoft

>>725755131 (OP)
So... are we not getting that Sands of Time remake anymore?

>>725756679
It's over now anon. We are just racing to make the superpowered AI machine to rule over us. You may not like it but all of those companies are going to be used as cannon fodder for AI to rain its data

>>725761793
Ubisoft has precisely zero involvement with Olden Era outside of lending HoMM ip, they aren't even publishing it.

>>725762118
that one is slated for q1 2026, should be pretty much done

>>725762118
>A remake of the game, developed by Indian studios Ubisoft Mumbai and Ubisoft Pune, was announced at Ubisoft Forward 2020 and was originally scheduled for release on 21 January 2021, for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One

That's literally how it works in Canada and I'm sure there's plenty of other countries doing the same.

>>725762258
that version got cancelled for being ass and the team got fired

they have a proper new remake in the works

>>725761272
That doesn't mean it can't get cancelled like multiple times before. I'll wait for an announcement.

how is this allowed exactly? if companies can just hit the pause button before releasing news why don't they all do it?

>>725762812
It's only allowed to stop market manipulation when enough people with money know what news is happening. It's usually done when the stock value is going to explode in either direction so Ubisoft likely got bought.

>>725761008
>>725761158
Lmao, Mihoyo doesn't even have 10k employees, barely half of Ubisoft, and they have 6+ games running and more on the way. A smaller company with less headcount and bloat, making billions in profit every year.

What the fuck is Ubi doing?

what does this mean for the rayman ip?

paying an army's worth for a marketing department

>>725762812
Trading pauses arent necessarily common, but aren’t that rare either. But they usually are not this long. As for why they don’t always do it? For one they have to ask the exchange to do it and historically the pause doesn’t really reduce the impact of bad news when they finally do unpause it. It’s just there so that the market can fully evaluate the impact of the news before trading occurs.

>>725763524
Sucking up all the government gibs and imploding

>>725763602
Apparently they didn't do well enough shilling for AssCreed Shadows. Should've used those millions to pay off more gaming journos.

A pajeet with $10 could've ran a better Xitter campaign with his AI bots.

I hope that Tencent makes a decent 3D PoP game (the best Ubisoft IP).

>>725760697
Top shrug.
West won't fuck to save itself from oblivion. It has no right to posterity. You cannot change this fact. All you can do is detest it.

>>725763524
A big reason why Ubisoft is so big is because governments around the world offer tax rebates and other benefits for opening a game dev studio in their country. Ubisoft absolutely abuses the shit out of this.

>>725763550
mobile slop or still in the grave

Can Tencent fix Naoe?

An Assassin's Creed set during the Chinese Civil War where you assassinate Kulaks and KMT generals that are allied with the Templars would be pretty cool.

And people still want to have children in this world? Hell no.
