Ubisoft Proposes Closing RedLynx Studio and Cutting 70 Roles at Ubisoft Singapore
Ubisoft Is Closing Down Yet Another Studio, Possibly Ending A 25-Year Fan-Favorite Franchise
Ubisoft announced a proposal to close Finnish studio Ubisoft RedLynx, the long-time developer of the Trials motorbike stunt series, which it acquired in 2011 and which has a 25-year history. Ubisoft Singapore is also losing 70 positions, which the company said is to align the studio with upcoming production needs. RedLynx had already lost more than half its staff in 2025 and the remaining team was told to focus only on mobile games; according to VGC, the closure rationale is that it is not currently working on a new project and resizing alone would not keep it sustainable, affecting 52 staff. Finnish law requires change negotiations before layoffs, so Ubisoft describes the move as a proposal at this stage. The article also notes Ubisoft's share price fell from a 2018 peak of €100 to €3.84 in March 2026 and has hovered around €5 since.
