Ubisoft have released a new video about the future of Ubisoft Toronto, who are celebrating their fifth anniversary this year. They released Splinter Cell: Blacklist in 2013, and contributed to other games, such as Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed: Unity.
The video includes an interview with Ubisoft Toronto's Managing Director Alex Parizeau, who recently took over form Jade Raymond, when she left the studio to "pursue new opportunities", and he says that the developer is gearing up to take on new projects, but to do so, they need to hire a few new recruits.
He also discusses the birth and growth of the studio as well as the plans for a massive expansion, as part of their plan with the Canadian government is to reach 800 staff members by 2015. This means that if you want to join the team at Ubisoft Toronto, then you can head over to their official website to explore all the current job opportunities, as they arelooking for people of all experience levels.
Clint Hocking, the creative director of the upcoming Assassin’s Creed game, Codename Hexe, has left Ubisoft, VGC understands.

“Ubi soft is trying to emerge from a rocky few years“
^ THIS after Ubisoft’s fluff pieces about how great they are doing after Assassins, Attack on Titan and laying offs. The hype fell the floor apparently.
I was a bit gutted with The Division, too many bells and whistles like Far Cry. Never rated Prince of Persia or The Crew. Rayman, it’s too long in the tooth, lay it to rest.
Far Cry and Assassin's Creed, this is all Ubishit can make. It would be better if Ubishit just close down, and sell their other IP's, like Splinter Cell, Beyond Good and Evil, etc. Far Cry and Assassin's Creed can just die, that is enough.
The company says these reductions are part of its larger cost-cutting plan that included a major restructuring and the closure of its Halifax studio.
Just lay off the whole video game industry that's how it looks. Everything is filled with greed and AI shit all over.
