Now we can worry about his future for the Assassin’s Creed series. Senior writer Darby McDavitt, who has signed on to many of the series’ plays, announced yesterday that he is leaving the Ubisoft Montréal studio after 10 years. As a result, the series lost two major lorekeepers.
Where does the Assassin’s Creed series go?
McDavitt, who has written for assassin’s Creed Valhalla, AC4: Black Flag, AC Revelations, Unity, Origins, and more, is now leaving Ubisoft Montréal. In a statement on his Twitter account, he announced:
“Today is my last day at Ubisoft Montreal!
After working with great people for ten years, creating an incredible array of stories and characters, and communicating with our wonderful fans, I decided to embark on a new adventure.
I would like to express a special thank you to all the fans and creators who have supported and spread our work over the years. Thank you for your concern! With the deepest respect and admiration. It’s been an honor to know so many of you.”
McDavitt posted the news of the breakup on his Twitter account yesterday but did not say where he would work in the future. The author’s departure from Ubisoft means the loss of two major loremasters for the Assassin’s Creed series. Lead writer Corey May, who was behind the first play and several ac games that followed, also left the company in 2015.
While the series was on its journey to Ubisoft Montreal, we also saw that some of the sequels came from studios in Quebec and Sofia. The latest release, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, was released at the end of last year and was signed by studios Ubisoft Montreal and Milan.
