THE FUSE

Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is out today and is already having one of the best Steam launches in the franchise’s history. Unfortunately, the celebrations are bittersweet for developers who worked on the game at Ubisoft Barcelona. The studio’s team there is facing layoffs at the end of the month after not being assigned to a new project. “After 7 years at Ubisoft Barcelona, this is not how I imagined it would end,” wrote QA lead Isabel Codina García on LinkedIn. “But I am genuinely grateful for the people I have met and everything I have learned along the way.”
