Yves Guillemot's son, who created a failed mobile game, to lead Ubisoft's transformation — insider
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Big changes are brewing at Ubisoft, and they are set to be led by someone whose abilities are questioned by some employees.
Insider Tom Henderson continues to report on what is happening at Ubisoft. In a new article, he addressed the company’s transformation.
According to his report, Ubisoft’s transformation committee will be led by a relative of Yves Guillemot — his son, Charlie Guillemot.
Previously, he served as the head of the Owlient studio — it released the mobile RPG Tom Clancy's Elite Squad, which was eventually shut down.
Tom Henderson notes that “the move was met with criticism by employees who told [us] that the majority of the committee is to blame for the current state of Ubisoft.”
Besides Charlie, several other people will join the committee — they will “lead the development of [Ubisoft] brands and studios over the next 100 days”:
- Alain Corre
- Cécile Russeil
- Christophe Derennes
- Jean Guesdon
- Marie-Sophie de Waubert
- Mickaël Montanier
- Nicolas Rioux
- Sébastien Froidefond
- Stéphanie Perotti
