Ubisoft Plans Cuts at German Studios: Workforce Reductions in the Gaming Industry
The video game industry continues to experience significant workforce contraction, highlighted by Ubisoft’s recent move to reduce its headcount in Germany.
- Ubisoft is planning to reduce its German workforce by approximately 100 employees, with more than half of these cuts expected at the Dusseldorf studio.
- To manage the headcount reduction, Ubisoft is negotiating a voluntary departure program with the Works Council, potentially offering a payout formula based on 1.5 times the monthly salary multiplied by years of service.
- Ubisoft’s total headcount has decreased from 20,729 in September 2022 to 16,590 by March 2026 as part of a broader cost-cutting initiative that aims to save an additional €180 million by 2028.
