Ubisoft has become one of the biggest developer studios in the world. Multiple franchises including Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry have made the studio achieve legendary status among the fans.

Microsoft has decided to sell cloud streaming rights to Ubisoft in the UK, in an apparent move to appease the CMA. Despite Microsoft receiving a green signal for the Activision-Blizzard takeover in the US, the EU decision is still not delivered, leaving the Xbox makers in troubled waters.
