Tencent hand Ubisoft a big wad of cash to spin out Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six as a separate business


Well, there you have it folks. After months of uncertainty over share price falls, major game delays and squabbles with investors, Ubisoft have opened up a new subsidiary to look after their biggest-selling Assassin's Creed, Rainbow Six, and Far Cry games, with Tencent chucking in a whopping €1.16 billion - meaning that the latter will have a 25% stake in the new spin-off business when all is said and done.

Rainbow Six Siege and GTA 5 now "Playable" on Steam Deck, despite anti-cheat

Valve has just issued an update to its Steam Deck compatibility ratings for GTA 5 Enhanced and Rainbow Six Siege, declaring them both as Playable.
