Amazon Games, the developer behind upcoming MMORPG New World, has opened a brand-new studio in Montreal, Canada. Focussing on "creating original triple-A games", the studio is headed up by some of the former core team behind Ubisoft's FPS game Rainbow Six Siege - and it's got an online game based on a new IP in the pipeline.
In a blog post announcing Amazon Games Montreal - which joins the company's existing roster of studios in Seattle, Orange County, and San Diego - Amazon says that the Canada-based team is founded by industry and Rainbow Six Siege veterans Xavier Marquis as creative director, Luc Bouchard as head of production, Alexandre Remy as head of product, and Romain Rimokh as content director.
While details on exactly what this studio will be cooking up first are thin on the ground for now, Amazon does say that its first project will be "an online multiplayer title based on new IP". It also sounds like it'll be very different from what the devs worked on previously, with Marquis explaining that, "building upon eight years of experience with Siege, we are excited to start with a blank page and the creative freedom to create a completely unique experience in the multiplayer space".
