Ubisoft Says 60 Jobs “Could be Impacted” in Latest Layoffs

A tweet from Social Operations Manager, Matthew Hayes, has revealed that Ubisoft has laid off about 60 people from its UK and US offices.

Thanks to a report from Gamespot, who reached out to Ubisoft on the matter, the company confirmed and elaborated that 60 staffers from the company’s offices in Cary, North Carolina, and Newcastle in the UK “could be impacted” due to organizational changes.

I (and about 60 other amazing people) were laid off today with no notice. I'm divorced, living alone with a mortgage, and have a daughter who I love and support, so if any of you have any leads, please reach out. Thank you so much. <3
