Eidos to open shop in Montreal |
Ó
British publisher Eidos has announced their plans to open shop, specifically a new development studio, in Montreal. This new Eidos studio will be working on unnamed and undisclosed next-gen games. The coveted role of general manager will be given to Stéphane D'Astous. The new GM's first task is to recruit a new team for the Montreal studio.This is all part of Eidos' expansion strategy. After opening new studios in Sweden and Hungary in the past 12 months, it seems that the expansion is going as planned. The company also internal studios Crystal Dynamics, IO Interactive, Pivotal Games and Beautiful Game. According to Bill Ennis, commercial director of Eidos:
This is a really exciting time for Eidos. We are actively looking for opportunities to further our drive to become a major force in global videogames publishing. Montreal is the ideal location to open a new studio because of its thriving game development community and favourable economics.
Our talented workers, competitive operating costs and the support of our government have enabled Quebec to become the sector leader in Canada and attract industry's major players, like Eidos.
