Ubisoft Entertainment (formally Ubi Soft Entertainment Software) is a video game company headquartered in Montreuil, France. Founded by Christian, Claude, Gérard, Michel, and Yves Guillemot, they have developed games from numerous franchises, including Rayman, Assassin's Creed, Just Dance, and Prince of Persia.
Ubisoft has had a history with allegations of abusive working conditions, ethnic insensitivity, and sexual harassment. In 2020, company CEO Yves Guillemot promised an overhaul of Ubisoft's policies and announced departures or demotions of executives accused with sexual abuse.[1] However, an investigation made in 2021 reported that the policy overhaul had made little impact on Ubisoft's poor working environment.[2]
Mario + Rabbids series
Ubisoft has published the Mario and Rabbids crossover game Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle outside Japan, and the game has been developed by its Milan and Paris studios. Within Japan, it is published by Nintendo. The game would go on to be a huge success, becoming one of the best-selling third-party games on the Nintendo Switch. This would then lead to a sequel called Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope to be developed and published by Ubisoft, scheduled to release in 2022.
