Assassin's Creed franchise head Marc-Alexis Côté departed from Ubisoft a few days ago after 20 years, right as the studio launched a new Tencent-backed company to handle the franchise – and according to the former lead, leaving wasn't his choice.
Côté reveals as much in a bittersweet new post on LinkedIn, starting by admitting the "past 24 hours have been deeply emotional." He continues: "Reading all your public and private messages has reminded me of so many moments, people, and shared dreams from the past two decades. I have been archiving all of them, something to revisit one day when I am old, smiling at what we built together."
