Ubisoft to investigate accusations of sexual misconduct

Ubisoft responded Thursday to multiple allegations fabricated over the past few days concerning sexual misconduct by its employees.

In a argument posted on its website, a company spokesperson said that the company is "launching investigations" into the allegations and is "auditing our existing policies, processes, and systems to empathise where these have broken downwards."

"We desire to start by apologizing to everyone affected past this – nosotros are truly distressing. We are dedicated to creating an inclusive and condom surround for our teams, players, and communities. Information technology is clear we accept fallen short of this in the past. We must practise better," it read.

The mail service too said that the company will be hiring "specialized external consultants" to help with the investigations.

There have been multiple sexual assault and harassment accusations fabricated against Ubisoft employees this week. Two examples include Andrien "EscoBlades" Gbinigie, who was a brand marketing manager at the company and the founder of the Black Game Pros Mixer, and Rock Chin, who worked in public relations.

Multiple women alleged that Gbinigie either assaulted them, raped them, or attempted to "groom" them with inappropriate relationships. He refuted 1 of the claims in a Medium post, which has since been removed for violating the platform'south guidelines. Chin, on the other hand, was brought up in regards to incidents reported over the years. Chin hasn't responded to the accusations.

Ashraf Ismail, the creative managing director on Assassin's Creed Valhalla, stepped downward from the project yesterday later on accusations emerged that he was cheating on his wife.

Beyond specific incidents, many sometime Ubisoft employees take come frontwards virtually it being a toxic workplace. Musician Alanna Matty, whose music was used in Watch Dogs 2, posted in a Twitter thread about how HR failed to support her confronting a wave of corruption. VP of Editorial Maxime Beland was also accused of choking a female employee at a gaming event. In its statement, Ubisoft didn't go into specifics about which cases are being investigated.

Earlier this calendar week, an Ubisoft spokesperson said in a argument that the company is "deeply concerned by these accusations. Nosotros take any allegations of abuse or harassment very seriously and we are looking very closely into the allegations to decide next steps."

This follows the response to accusations against games author Chris Avellone and multiple prominent streamers on Twitch.
