Ubisoft’s drastic campaign to save itself has claimed another victim, as multiple outlets are reporting that one of its oldest teams, Red Storm has lost 105 employees and will no longer develop games.

Gameindustry.biz confirmed the news first, stating that someone inside of Ubisoft passed along the information that North Caroline studio Red Storm will remain open, but all of its game developers have been laid off.

According to what they were told, the studio will shift its focus to the Snowdrop engine, as well as IT work and customer relations.

Red Storm Entertainment was recently moved to one of Ubisoft’s new “creative houses”, specifically being placed in the house focusing on multiplayer shooters.

Red Storm is one of Ubisoft’s oldest studios. It began life in 1996, founded by author Tom Clancy, Royal Navy veteran Doug Littlejohns, and Virtus Corporation. It developed numerous Tom Clancy titles, including 1998’s Tom Clancy Rainbow Six.

Ubisoft bought the studio in 2000 and kept on pumping out Tom Clancy games like Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon. It also worked on numerous other titles for Ubisoft over the years, and in recent years focused heavily on VR work.

More recently, Red Storm’s new game The Division: Heartland was cancelled in 2024. Since then, the studio has done more support work. It’s unclear if they had another game in the works.
