Ubisoft suspends 1666 development after Desilets firing
P📖rospects dim for the unannounced project from TH𒁏Q Montreal
1666, the unannounced project from Assassin's Creed I and II creative director Patrice Desilets, has been suspended indefinitely by Ubisoft. CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed the title has been put on ice, following 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Desilet's second departure from the co♔mpany, in a conference call with inves🧸toཧrs today (via ).
"After more than two months of discussion with [Désilets], we couldn't align our vision both on project development and team management, so consequently our collaboration has en▨ded," Guillemot said in response to a question about the former THQ Montreal studio. "We have suspended development on 1666 for an undisclosed time."
1666 never had what you'd call a grand debut. Rather, its existence came to light as part o🗹f THQ's bankruptcy proceedings. Desilets says he was escorted♉ out of the company last week and he intends "to fight Ubisoft vigorously for my rights, for my team and for my game."
