Ubisoft under fire for alleged ‘crunch culture’ while making one of its biggest flops

A studio underneath the Ubisoft publisher reportedly suffered such significant crunch that it burnt out 10 percent of the entire workforce, only for the game they worked on to be dubbed a financial underperformer and serve as an attributing reason for canceling other Ubisoft titles.

The development of Just Dance 2023 at the Ubisoft Paris studio led 10 percent of the employees there to claim they were burnt out during the project, according to a report from French labor union Solidaires Informatique. These crunch-propelled feelings of burnout reportedly led to numerous work stoppages for employees to take sick leave.
