Earlier this year, Amazon decided to massively scale back its gaming business after failing to produce a hit. Now just a couple of months later, Amazon has actually sold off one of its studios to Ubisoft, along with the rights to its MOBA game, March of Giants.
Ubisoft announced that it had acquired Amazon Games Montreal this week. The studio will now join Ubisoft's roster of studios, and mark Ubisoft's second studio in the city of Montreal.
As pointed out by Eurogamer, this move also reunites Ubisoft with former Rainbow Six Siege director, Xavier Marquis, who had left Ubisoft in 2019.
The studio that Ubisoft has acquired was most known for its MOBA game, March of Giants, which Ubisoft now also owns. Ubisoft seems to be excited about this, as its executives believe that the MOBA market will double in revenue by 2030. That trend might be true, but it is likely to be primarily driven by the growing mobile MOBA market. March of Giants is currently only confirmed for PC and has yet to receive a console or mobile announcement.
KitGuru Says: Did you try March of Giants during its closed playtest earlier this year? Are you looking forward to the official release in 2026?
