The deal includes the teams working on the mentioned properties, but doesn’t go into what IPs are changing hands. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if all Tom Clancy series are lumped together

I worked for Ubisoft for more than 10 years. This is the first encouraging news about the company I’ve read in a long time.

From the article …

In a conference call, Ubisoft chief financial officer Frederick Duguet said the subsidiary’s board “will be controlled by Ubisoft, so Ubisoft will continue controlling and consolidating this entity.”

lol sure for now, all of those “we’ll control this buyout” lasts for like a year until the org is dissolved or whatever because the majority shareholder has changed the deal
