Former Assassin’s Creed chief sues Ubisoft claiming “constructive dismissal” after Tencent-backed restructuring

[Redaktion]

Former Assassin's Creed chief Marc-Alexis Côté is suing Ubisoft for more than CAD $1.3 million, alleging he was pushed out through "constructive dismissal" during a 2025 restructuring that stripped him of authority and recast his departure as a voluntary resignation. The lawsuit, filed in Quebec Superior Court, accuses Ubisoft of abuse of power, seeks to void his non-compete clause, and spotlights internal upheaval around Tencent-backed Vantage Studios' takeover of the publisher's flagship franchises.
