This news was followed by Ubisoft sharing details on their financial results that saw the launch of two major games, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint and Tom Clancy’s The Division 2. Both of these games ended up underperforming for Ubisoft with the former being a failure for the company due to it getting critcally panned in reviews.
Speaking about Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said that the company was disappointed by first-week sales and critical reception around the game’s launch.
“For Ghost Recon Breakpoint, while the game’s quality appeared on track – based on E3, Gamescom, previews and our latest internal playtests –, critical reception and sales during the game’s first weeks were very disappointing. As we have done with past titles, we will continue to support the game and listen to the community in order to deliver the necessary improvements.”
