The producer of Far Cry 3 made a statement stating that he will continue with independent projects after the separation.
Senior developer at Ubisoft for over 20 years Far Cry 3 maker Patrick Plourde has officially announced that he is leaving the company. Plourde announced earlier this week (April 13) that he would leave Ubisoft and set up his own independent consulting firm. “It was a privilege to work together,” Plourde wrote on her personal Twitter account. said. The producer had worked at Ubisoft on games such as Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas, Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry 3, Watch Dogs 2 and Child of Light. He added that he will continue to work with Ubisoft as long as possible and will devote time to some personal projects.
Far Cry 3 producer will continue with consulting firm
Plourde made a crazy statement to Axios that “it will be outside of a traditional structure and will be involved in other areas outside of the game”. The former Ubisoft producer has previously held very different roles within Ubisoft. He was a game designer on the original Assassins’ Creed and later served as a director on Assassins’ Creed: Brotherhood. He also worked as a producer-director in the independent content Child of Light and Far Cry 3 in 2014.
In fact, this separation is not the first and does not look like it will be the last. Ubisoft continues to bleed, knowing that five of the top 25 names working on Far Cry 6 in recent years, and twelve of the top 50 people on Assassin’s Creed: Vallahala have left the company. Low wages, attractive offers from other companies, and sexism and harassment in the Headquarters’ workplace are among the reasons for the breakups.
