Ubisoft opening new studio in Sao Paulo, Brazil
The publisher hopes to get the studio rolling in July with about 20 developers and grow it tenfold over the next four years into a 200-member team. Ubisoft notes the new location will begin by working with other studios on "family-oriented titles" for consoles and handhelds.

Greatest. Photoshop. Ever.
Are there any other major game companies with studios in Brazil or Morocco? I'm just wondering why they would locate there.

Does this mean the Arabic in Assassin's Creed 2 isn't going to all be horribly butchered?

Brazil is such a fucking AWESOME movie. The theme song alone makes it awesome. I had to watch it like 3 times before it made any sense to me.

Just be careful of being kidnapped, and having your ear cut off; and the government corruption; and the poverty. Sao Paulo, Brazil is a pretty crummy place. Hope the developers have the swag to get their cars bullet-proofed.

that's the best picture I've ever seen in my life.

With added Bob Hoskins

Super Mario Bros. was just as confusing as Brazil.

Why doesn't Ubisoft commission a soccer franchise to be developed at their Sao Paulo studio? A Brazilian developer would make the best soccer game in the history of ever.

Good news. Good to know I would have a chance to finally get a job in a video game company in this shithole that is São Paulo. I'll send my resumé ASAP!
