Ubisoft to shut RedLynx studio and cut up to 122 jobs in Singapore

Ubisoft disclosed a proposal to close its Finnish RedLynx studio, a move that could affect up to 52 jobs once the local change negotiation process is completed. Simultaneously, the firm will cut about 70 positions at Ubisoft Singapore, representing roughly 20% of its workforce, to align with upcoming production requirements. Both studios have been part of Ubisoft’s Creative Network division, providing support to other internal teams after a restructuring announced the previous year.

RedLynx, acquired in 2011 and known for the Trials series, last released a mobile puzzle title before its cancellation. Ubisoft Singapore, founded in 2008, contributed to naval combat in Assassin’s Creed and developed the delayed title Skull and Bones. The layoffs follow a broader cost-cutting drive that has already seen the cancellation of several games and the closure of other studios worldwide.
