Ubisoft’s Finnish studio RedLynx is proposing significant staff reductions affecting 60 developers. The move comes as the Trials Rising developer shifts its strategic focus toward mobile gaming and small-screen optimization, including work on Nintendo Switch 2 titles.
Strategic Shift Leads to Workforce Reduction
Ubisoft RedLynx, the Finland-based development studio behind the Trials franchise, is reportedly planning to lay off approximately 60 developers from its Helsinki team. According to reports, the staff reductions come as part of a broader restructuring initiative that will see the studio transition from multiplatform development to specializing in “small screens” – primarily mobile devices and handheld gaming platforms.
