IGN · 3 min read · policy
Ubisoft Barcelona staff went on strike with 90 workers in attendance, rejecting the company's severance offer as "below any reasonable standard" after up to 51 jobs were eliminated. The studio contributed significantly to Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, which sold 2 million copies in 24 hours, but will now focus only on Rainbow Six development.
