During an earnings call this week, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemo discussed the Assassin’s Creed video game series’ absence in 2016, and explained that the studio taking a break from the franchise allows the film’s marketing department even more room for promotion. The Ubisoft executive went on to say that the movie’s “all-star” cast of Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Irons, and Brendan Gleeson, as well as the “outstanding” director Justin Kurzel will be able to make the big screen version a hit without having the confusion of a game being advertised at the same time.
Although some fans of the Assassin’s Creed video games might be upset by the lack of a fresh title this year, as previously reported, Guillemo has said that it’s best for the series as a whole, as the studio will be able to “re-examine” the game and have it return with a “new dimension”. Plus, as seen in the Ubisoft CEO’s statement below, he assures gamers will have the pleasure of experiencing a better film without the distraction of a video game counterpart being in production.
