So...
https://legalclarity.org/who-owns-ubisoft-guillemot-family-tencent-more/
The brothers together own ~10.7% of the shares, but, due to a French law about this, their shares give them double the voting power per share, as compared to all other shareholders, basically because they've held their shares for more than 2 years concurrently.
So, that means that ~21% of the controlling interest is now, presumably, split between 4 people, instead of 5, though it could depend exactly on what the will stipulates... if anything.
Of course, there is no current evidence of foul play... but when this much money is involved... might be reasonable to check.
Would not be the first time a private plane crash with a very wealthy person onboard was employed in a familial dispute amongst the wealthy.
