Tom Clancy’s The Division and Star Wars Outlaws studio Massive Entertainment have been rebranded as a global powerhouse, taking on additional responsibilities such as Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell, alongside a new original game, World War fantasy MOBA March of Giants. This rebranding is a result of Ubisoft's restructuring, initiated by a significant investment from Tencent in March 2025.
The new creative house, led by Christoph Hartmann, will oversee these franchises while the previous creative house faces layoffs, closures, and cancellations. Ubisoft's Toronto team, responsible for the Splinter Cell remake, has seen a 40-person reduction but assures that it is still in development. Meanwhile, Ghost Recon and March of Giants are on the horizon.
March of the Giants is a 4v4 battle game where each player controls a giant character leading thousands of AI-controlled NPCs. While the die-punk aesthetic is intriguing, the gameplay mechanics haven't garnered much excitement thus far. Nevertheless, the game's progress can be tracked on its Steam page, where playtest applicants are being accepted.
