Ubisoft Barcelona To Strike Over Layoffs

Ubisoft has been undergoing a controversial restructuring, having previously laid off hundreds of staff across multiple studios. In the latest round of layoffs, announced earlier in June, the gaming giant laid off 51 employees—28% of its staff at the location—at its Barcelona studio, resulting in the announcement of a strike at the branch. According to Insider Gaming, employees at Ubisoft Barcelona will strike every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon between June 30 and July 16.
