EA is trying its hand at an Assassin’s Creed-style open world game

EA is looking to create an Assassin’s Creed-style, open world franchise.

“We’ve never really operated in the largest genre of gaming, and that’s the action genre,” EA Studios CFO Blake Jorgensen said at the UBS Global Technology Conference in San Francisco, via Gamespot.

“That’s the Assassin’s Creed-style games; more open world, more single-play versus multiplayer. It’s not been an area that we’ve operated in. We recently hired Jade Raymond, who was behind the Assassin’s Creed franchise for Ubisoft and she will be building an action genre [game] for us through a studio we’re building out in Montreal right now. So a lot of excitement around the action genre.”
