Interview: Ubisoft’s Mallat On New Toronto Studio’s Future / Gamasutra

“Following Monday’s press conference announcing a new Ubisoft development studio in Toronto, Gamasutra had a chance to talk to the studio’s new CEO, Yannis Mallat.

The unveiling of the “full development studio” in Toronto, Ontario marks the company’s first development presence in the province, and is intended to create 800 new jobs in the next decade.

Mallat — who is also to continue overseeing Ubisoft Montreal — talked to us about the big plans for a “triple-A” game development studio, with convergence with the local film industry key.”

A decent interview with Yannis Mallat about the very exciting news of a new studio for Ubisoft here in Toronto. I’ve spoken with Mallat before, and with this kind of news I expect to be talking to him a lot more.
