The Ubisoft subsidiary handling many of the publisher's biggest properties, including Assassin's Creed and Far Cry, finally has a name. Part-funded by Tencent, the venture is part of a re-structuring of the overall company in the hopes of revitalizing its franchises after a period of weaker sales.
Vantage Studios is the moniker for this new Ubisoft-Tencent conglomerate, an umbrella company covering several different internal studios, with a combined total of 2,300 employees. Teams in Montreal Quebec, Sofia, Barcelona, Sherbrooke, Saguenay and beyond will develop upcoming games through the Vantage label, with an emphasis on individual decision-making to help breed more creative and marketable releases
