Ubisoft has officially confirmed the completion of Tencent’s €1.16 billion investment in its new subsidiary, Vantage Studios. This strategic move grants Tencent a 26.32 percent economic interest in Vantage Studios, which now oversees popular Ubisoft franchises like Assassin’s Creed, Rainbow Six, and Far Cry.

The investment has given Vantage Studios a pre-money enterprise value of €3.8 billion. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot expressed that this deal signifies a significant milestone for the company, bringing in proceeds that will strengthen their financial position and support future investments.

Under the leadership of co-CEOs Christophe Derennes and Charlie Guillemot, Vantage Studios aims to accelerate the growth of Ubisoft’s flagship franchises by embodying principles of autonomy, focus, and player centricity.

In related news, Ubisoft’s cost reduction initiatives have led to the departure of 1,500 employees over the past year, with plans to achieve at least €100 million in fixed cost savings by FY2026-27.
