Guillemot blames Rainbow Six Siege issues for Ubisoft's miss

Ubisoft reported mixed quarterly financial performance during the first three months of 2025. Assassin's Creed Shadows expanded its player base to five million users since launch, demonstrating strong engagement metrics. Players accumulated impressive statistics with two billion stealth eliminations, one billion kilometers of travel, and thirty-eight million animal interactions. The publisher experienced lower net bookings than projected due to technical pricing problems affecting Rainbow Six Siege revenue streams. CEO Yves Guillemot acknowledged these temporary disruptions while expressing confidence in future growth potential.

The company plans to establish Creative Houses as specialized business units aimed at enhancing both creative vision and financial performance. These divisions will oversee major franchises such as Rainbow Six, Far Cry, and Assassin's Creed under new leadership structures. The upcoming Claws of Awaji expansion will deliver more than ten hours of additional content during the second fiscal quarter. Industry speculation suggests a September release window for this downloadable content package. Ubisoft expects improved results as technical issues receive resolution and new organizational strategies take effect.
