Last week, Benoit Richer, who was the game director of Assassin’s Creed Codename Hexe, finally left Ubisoft . But it seems he wasn’t the only one…

Insider Gaming reports that around fifty developers were removed from the project following changes to the franchise’s leadership team in February. This reduction in the team dedicated to Hexe was also reportedly announced last week. Employees now reportedly have three months to join a title currently in production at Ubisoft, or else they will be laid off.

Additionally, Insider Gaming has confirmed xj0nathan’s information regarding the more « realistic » aspect of Assassin’s Creed Hexe. Rather than practicing magic, the heroine would learn the basics of chemistry (for example, to make smoke bombs).

Finally, the release of Assassin’s Creed Hexe is currently set for June 2027.
