Excuse me? Are we going back to the "single player games are dead" speech?Because there's been a ton of games the last two years that have proven how that is not true.

The thing is, the market is absolutely lopsided nowadays. Free-to-play and multiplayer stuff are probably nearing 10-to-1 in terms of revenue vs. single-player 'premium' experiences. I don't know if the remaining 10% is shrinking in absolute terms but in this post-pandemic era, it might as well be.

That being said, companies rarely consent to surgically selling IPs, even when they haven't been using them for a long time, so that rumor is probably bull.

And the mobile market is bigger than both the console and PC market, maybe even combined. But no one says that publishers should put all their games on mobile or that they should stop releasing games on PC/Console. It doesn't make sense.

There's a market for everything, and what publishers should learn to do is manage their budgets and don't f*ck things up with their marketing campaigns which, in my opinion, are what have hurt Ubisoft the most, and not the kind of game they make.
