Ubisoft Faces Financial Struggles as 'Star Wars Outlaws' Underperforms

The highly anticipated game garners mixed reviews and fails to meet sales expectations, impacting Ubisoft's stock price.

Ubisoft's share price has dropped to its lowest level since 2015 following the release of 'Star Wars Outlaws'.
The game received a Metacritic score in the mid-70s, with critics highlighting issues in combat and stealth mechanics.
Sales forecasts for 'Star Wars Outlaws' have been lowered by 2 million units, now expected to sell 5.5 million units by March 2025.
The game's performance has also affected Ubisoft's other projects, including a decline in player interest for 'XDefiant'.
Ubisoft is now relying on the upcoming release of 'Assassin's Creed Shadows' to stabilize its financial situation.
