Ubisoft Explores Minority Stake Sale in New Gaming Entity

The venture would include key franchises like Assassin’s Creed, with Tencent among potential investors.

Ubisoft is seeking investors for a new entity that will house some of its core gaming franchises, including Assassin’s Creed.
The company is reportedly considering selling a minority stake and has asked for preliminary bids by the end of March 2025.
Tencent, already a 9.99% shareholder in Ubisoft, is among the potential backers approached for this venture.
The move follows years of declining share value for Ubisoft, with its market capitalization now at approximately €1.7 billion.
Ubisoft has stated that it is reviewing strategic options to maximize the value of its assets and franchises for stakeholders.
