Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77500, member: 636"] Ubisoft grabbed the MOBA March of Giants from Amazon and folded the Montreal team into its studio when the deal wrapped. Creative director Xavier Marquis used to helm Rainbow Six Siege at Ubisoft before, and senior production lead Alexandre Parizeau ran the Toronto office back in the day. Amazon will still push marketing through Twitch even though it handed over the keys. This went down right after Amazon axed over 14,000 workers and shut down a bunch of game projects like New World: Aeternum and that second Lord of the Rings MMO. The company seems to be backing away from original IPs and focusing harder on adaptations and established franchises instead. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot thinks the game has legs in the MOBA space, and bringing back developers who already worked there before makes the transition smoother for everyone involved. [/QUOTE]
