Ubisoft EMBARGOED news to outlets about the layoffs and studio closures, FYI.
Employees were told this morning. And then many reached out to us.
Companies trying to embargo layoffs and closures might be the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen in my 16 years.

No! The youth enjoy this old shit too on its own merits!!
Panasonic Astro City VS Toshiba OK Baby who will win
