Imagine the impact of the Activision Blizzard transaction is so big, that at the latest investor conference of Ubisoft about their first quarter of Fiscal Year 2024, it was raised on how Ubisoft sees Microsoft gaining a gaming conglomerate.

For Ubisoft CEO and co-founder Yves Guillemot serves as an example and benchmark about the direction that Ubisoft is going to take in the future.

“I think it’s good news that the transaction can go through because it’s really showing the power of IPs and where the industry is going. So, there will be lots of opportunities too in the future for all the companies.”

Of course, this is the assumption about Microsoft's main goal with Activision Blizzard which is the mobile gaming studios led by King as the main reason to buy the whole company.

As per Ubisoft's numbers, the studio behind Tom Clancy’s games, Assassin’s Creed and other IPs, Q1 2024 debuted Fiscal Year 2024 with net bookings of €267.7 million, or around $297 million USD with the hero of the quarter being the surge on popularity of Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege, reaching double digit in comparison with last year.

Finally, Ubisoft announced that it foresees launching 10 games before the end of the fiscal year in April 2024, instead of the 8 that originally announced a while ago.

It means that we are awaiting until May 2024 Assassin's Creed Mirage, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, Rainbow Six Mobile, The Division Resurgence, Just Dance 24 edition, Prince of Persia The Lost Crown, Skull and Bones, The Crew Motorfest, XDefiant, and "another large game" which remains to see what would be, but I don’t see it is the Star War Games Outlast, recently announced, of course, let’s hope that I am wrong (if the game is coming on a proper stable state).
