Their Star Wars and Avatar game sold poorly due to licensing costs. No idea why they tried to work with Disney who takes a huge cut (as Sony revealed with Spider-man 2).
All they really have as a guaranteed money maker is Assassin's Creed. Rayman is dead, Splinter Cell is dead, Beyond Good and Evil is dead, Prince of Persia (outside 2D games) is dead, Watch Dogs is dead, etc. Almost all their big franchises are done besides Far Cry. |

Licensing costs have nothing to do with sales. Low sales mean nobody bought much. We know why people didn't buy Star Wars Outlaws and I just started playing Avatar myself and it SUCKS.

They still have to sell a huge amount to make back the cut to Disney. Star Wars Outlaws sold 800,000 copies in just a week and that is still considered a huge loss.
