Ubisoft has announced a new leadership team for the Assassin’s Creed series, with Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag veterans among the newly installed managers going forward.
Ubisoft’s Vantage Studios–which is charged with overseeing the Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six franchises–will have three main leaders for the Assassin’s Creed franchise specifically. These will be Martin Schelling as Head of Assassin’s Creed Brand, Jean Guesdon as Head of Content for Assassin’s Creed, and François de Billy as Head of Production Excellence.
Vantage Studios, meanwhile, is headed up by Charlie Guillemot, who is the son of Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot–and yes, he’s aware of the nepotism concerns. Vantage’s other boss is Christopher Derennes.
