Assassin's Creed Hexe Game Director Leaves Ubisoft
Key Points:
- Benoit Richer, game director of Assassin’s Creed Hexe, has left Ubisoft to join indie studio Servo Games as their new Game Director.
- Richer had been with Ubisoft since 2017 and previously worked seven years as a game director at Warner Bros. Games.
- Ubisoft has scaled back the Assassin’s Creed Hexe development team, reassigning around 50 developers to an interproject team, which risks redundancy if they do not secure new projects within three months.
- Assassin’s Creed Hexe is currently slated for release in June 2027, though this date may change due to ongoing shifts in the game's development.
- The departure and team changes highlight significant internal adjustments at Ubisoft amid evolving plans for the Assassin’s Creed Hexe project.
