    Former Assassin's Creed and Far Cry director says Ubisoft 'became very allergic' to new games, which contributed to a 'talent drain'

    It's been a rough few years for Ubisoft. Skull and Bones became a $200 million folly, one of several failed attempts to capitalise on live-service popularity; staff are revolting due to layoffs, studio closures and a mandatory return-to-office command; and after years of trying t

    If you've somehow managed to avoid Assassin's Creed up to this point and are looking to dive in, (or, as is more likely the case, you're looking to fill a gap in the vast library of historical murder simulators Ubisoft has created since 2007) now might be the time to do so. Ubiso

    When Assassin's Creed's infamously dull main character was finally killed off, voice actor Nolan North didn't find out until a fan told him about it on Twitter

    Desmond Miles? Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. Assassin's Creed 's original protagonist stood at the centre of the series' story from the 2007 original to Assassin's Creed 3 . I remember him being pretty roundly mocked at the time, and wasn't much of a fan mysel

    Remember Ubisoft's live-action Assassin's Creed TV series that it's been cooking up over at Netflix? No? Well, don't beat yourself up about it; I'm pretty sure Ubi's forgotten once or twice too. The studio was first chatting about its grand plans to make an AC TV show in 2017, in

    I wish Ubisoft had ever made the game it promised with Assassin's Creed 1, but instead the series just spiralled into a weird identity crisis

    Let's play 'guess the game'. You're a meticulous killer in a historical setting. Your targets are high-ranking aristocrats, priests, merchants—men and women of status who go everywhere flanked by a platoon of guards, who sleep behind barred doors, and whose entire lives are lived

    Ubisoft confirms older Assassin's Creed games will get remakes

    I used to try and keep up with the Assassin's Creed series - I really did. Then somewhere along the way, I lost track of what's new and what's a spinoff and where the mainline games begin and end. I suspect many feel the same way, though I have little evidence for it. It means th
