Former Assassin’s Creed creative director Ashraf Ismail has returned to the games industry with a new role at Tencent, two years after being fired by Ubisoft.
Ismail was let go from Ubisoft in August 2020, two months after stepping down from his role as creative director on Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Multiple women, including some Ismail had met as Assassin’s Creed fans, alleged Ismail had contacted them privately and encouraged relationships while concealing the fact he was married.
