🎮 Ubisoft is rising from the ashes—but is it too late or just in time? In Episode 90 of the Disgruntled Middle-Aged Gamers Podcast, Grant Roland and Ed Phillips revisit their predictions about Ubisoft’s downfall, and how the company is now making bold moves toward reinvention and revival.

From shifting game design philosophy to new leadership strategies and surprise fan service, we break down what this “reincarnation” of Ubisoft actually means—and why we were right all along.

In This Episode:

  • 🔄 The new Ubisoft strategy – What’s changed, what’s working, and why now?
  • 🎯 We called it! – Revisiting our past takes on Ubisoft’s collapse and turnaround
  • 🕹️ What Ubisoft is doing differently – Are they finally listening to gamers?
  • 🔮 Can they truly come back? – Our honest predictions for Ubisoft’s future

Highlights:

  • Analysis of Ubisoft’s latest moves, dev updates, and game pivots
  • AC Shadows, Star Wars Outlaws, and what they signal about the company
  • New IPs, remakes, and signs Ubisoft is moving away from "corporate safe"
  • How Ubisoft’s transformation compares to past studio turnarounds
