Assassin’s Creed Hexe is reportedly facing further leadership changes as game director Benoit Richer announces his departure from the project. According to reporting from Eurogamer, Richer’s exit is the second director-level departure this year. Earlier in the year, Rock Paper Shotgun reported that creative director Clint Hocking left the project in February. Together, the two articles indicate that both key director roles have changed since development began, potentially affecting the game’s direction and production. While the sources do not provide detailed reasons for either departure, they describe the events as part of broader personnel turnover within the development team. The game itself remains largely described as still “mysterious,” with limited additional concrete information in the coverage beyond the personnel changes. As of these reports, Ubisoft or the development team has not been cited in the excerpts with new details about staffing plans or whether there will be replacements. Both outlets frame the director departures as notable for a major Assassin’s Creed project.
