Ubisoft just admitted they are in "breach of a loan agreement" due to an accounting screw-up. The solution? Literally taking a massive $1.25 billion injection from Tencent to pay off their debt. What a mess.

It's hard to believe, but ARC Raiders was almost canceled. A new doc reveals the original 40-player co-op concept failed the "10km run" problem, forcing the devs to pivot from heroes to "rats". I think the reset paid off.
