NetEase Closes Third Studio In Recent Weeks, Impacting Former Ubisoft And Watch Dogs Devs

NetEase, a Chinese technology company, has recently closed its third studio within the span of a few weeks. The studio, known as Bad Brain Studios, was created only 2 years ago and consisted of former Ubisoft developers, including those who worked on the popular game Watch Dogs.

It seems that many of the core team members at Bad Brain Studios were integral to the development of Watch Dogs Legion. However, despite their experience and expertise, the studio was unable to sustain itself and ultimately met its demise.

Reports suggest that Bad Brain Studios released a video showcasing their discontent with their past Ubisoft managers, hinting at potential internal struggles within the studio. This closure serves as a reminder of the volatile nature of the gaming industry, where even talented developers can face challenges in maintaining a successful studio.

It remains to be seen how the former devs of Bad Brain Studios will move forward in their careers, but this event sheds light on the competitive and ever-changing landscape of game development.
