On December 3, 2024, it was announced that Ubisoft was closing the studio, affecting 134 people.[132]

Ubisoft San Francisco

Ubisoft San Francisco was based in San Francisco, California.[133] It was founded in 2009 within Ubisoft's North American headquarters and was the lead developer for the Rocksmith series, a music video game that allows players to use a real guitar as a controller, which was released in 2011.[134] The game was a critical and commercial success, and was followed by multiple sequels.[135] The studio recruited a large number of new employees in the mid-2010s, and collaborated with Matt Stone and Trey Parker in 2014 to develop South Park: The Fractured but Whole, a role-playing game based on the animated television series South Park universe.[1][136] The game was released in 2017 to critical acclaim.[137][138] In 2021, it announced the first-person shooter XDefiant.[139] Ubisoft San Francisco also provided support for several other Ubisoft titles, including games from Assassin's Creed and Far Cry series.[140] On December 3, 2024, Ubisoft announced the studio's closure, laying off 143 people. XDefiant was also announced to be shutting down after not attracting or retaining enough players.[132]

Ubisoft São Paulo

Ubisoft São Paulo was located in São Paulo, Brazil. The studio's foundation was announced on 24 June 2008 with a planned opening with 20 employees set for late July 2008, seeking to employ about 200 total staff after a four-year lifespan.[141][142][143][144][145] Early on, studio head Bertrand Chaverot stated that Ubisoft was considering to open additional studios in Rio de Janeiro and Florianópolis.[146] On 20 January 2009, it was announced that Ubisoft had acquired Porto Alegre-based Southlogic Studios, which was merged into Ubisoft São Paulo.[147][148][149] On 29 September 2010, Ubisoft reported that, due to a declining market interest in Nintendo DS games, the operations in Brazil would be re-evaluated, and that Ubisoft São Paulo's development facilities would be ramped down by the end of the year.[150][151]

Ubisoft Winnipeg

On 6 April 2018, Ubisoft announced it would invest CA$35 million in Canada's Manitoba province to create 100 jobs within five years, establishing a studio located in Winnipeg. Darryl Long will serve as the studio's managing director.[152] Ubisoft Winnipeg worked on Ubisoft's open world franchises.[1] On June 10, 2026, it was announced that Ubisoft was closing the studio and laying off dozen of employees.[153]

Ubisoft Zurich

Ubisoft Zurich began hiring for an unannounced free-to-play game in August 2011.[154] The company was set up by Yann Le Tensorer, who became its managing director, in Thalwil, a suburb of Zürich, Switzerland.[155] In an interview with Swiss magazine 20 Minuten, Le Tensorer explained that Ubisoft Zurich would be developing games with a focus on online gameplay.[156] He also stated that the company was planning to initially hire 20 people, and later expand the studio as the Swiss game development scene grew, as it was the case with Ubisoft Montreal.[156] However, in October 2013, Ubisoft announced that Ubisoft Zurich would be closed by the end of that month, citing the cancellation of the studio's only in-development game as reason for the closure.[157] 16 people were laid off in the process, all of whom were offered positions in other Ubisoft studios.[157]

Wolfpack Studios

Wolfpack Studios Inc. was founded in Round Rock, Texas, in 1999 by J. Todd Coleman, together with high school friend James Nance and college roommate Josef Hall.[158][159] Ubisoft announced on 1 March 2004 that they had acquired Wolfpack Studios, which at the time had between 20 and 25 employees, for an undisclosed price.[160][161] All three founders left the company after the purchase, of which Coleman and Hall later joined KingsIsle Entertainment.[158] On 1 April 2006, Ubisoft announced that the company would be closed down on 15 May 2006.[162] Wolfpack Studios' only product was Shadowbane, which was released in March 2003.[162] Several former members of Wolfpack Studios established a successor, Stray Bullet Games, in the same offices on 1 June 2006.[162]
