The new thing being launched by Ubisoft and Tencent to take control of Ubi's biggest games now has a name: It's called Vantage Studios, and it's a "creative house" that will take responsibility for the future of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six properties.
Vantage Studios is made up of "thousands of experienced developers" based in Ubisoft studios in Montreal, Quebec City, Sherbrooke, Saguenay, Barcelona, and Sofia, and "represents a first step in Ubisoft's ongoing transformation," the company said in today's announcement. It will also apparently be the first of multiple such "creative houses," the overall goal of which "is to facilitate stronger and deeper connections between developers and players."
