Ubisoft will cut 70 jobs in Singapore and shut its studio in Finland. The French company made its name with blockbuster franchises such as Assassin's Creed and Far Cry, along with Watch Dogs. Cuts of this kind reach deep into studio operations, from game design to administrative staff. The two moves extend a restructuring campaign that has accelerated as the company's finances tighten. Ubisoft has pushed back release dates and trimmed projects in response to lackluster sales. The games business overall has absorbed thousands of layoffs in recent years, and few publishers of Ubisoft's scale have come through untouched. For the affected workers, the announcement lands amid a job market already crowded with displaced developers.
