According to Reuters, Ubisoft's acquisition talks are continuing, with the Guillemot family, Ubisoft's owners, continuing discussions with Tencent and other investors about buying the company. Tencent is still hesitant to increase its stake in the company, but Tencent's negotiations are designed to prevent "any potential hostile takeover of Ubisoft by other investors". Tencent declined to comment on previous reports that Ubisoft is interested in being taken private by Tencent, Ubisoft's second largest shareholder with a 10% shareholding ratio. It is reported that Ubisoft has ventured into the blockchain gaming field, launching its first Web3 game, Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, and has also discussed collaborations with the Arbitrum Foundation and Sequence to build Web3 games. It has also joined the chain game studio Cometh.
