Ubisoft Financial Scandal Hits Assassin's Creed Shadows
Ubisoft is currently exploring the creation of a new company aimed at attracting investors by focusing on key franchises like Assassin's Creed. According to Bloomberg, the company is in negotiations to sell a stake in this new entity to potential investors, including Tencent and various international and French funds. The anticipated market value of this new venture is expected to surpass Ubisoft's current market capitalization of $1.8 billion.
However, the process remains in the discussion phase, and no final decision has been made yet. Ubisoft might choose to abandon the plan, depending on the success of their upcoming release, Assassin's Creed Shadows, which the company views with high expectations. Pre-orders for the game are reportedly progressing well.
Amidst these developments, Ubisoft is facing another controversy in Japan. Takeshi Nagase, a member of both the Kobe City Council and the Hyogo Prefectural Assembly, has criticized the depiction of religious themes in Assassin's Creed Shadows. Nagase finds it offensive that the game allows players to attack monks in temples or shoot arrows at sacred buildings. He specifically mentioned the portrayal of the famous Engyō-ji temple in Himeji, where the protagonist Yasuke enters with dirty shoes and destroys a sacred mirror, as particularly disrespectful.
