Bethesda Game Studios today announced that it has opened a new development studio in Montreal, Quebec to expand its development horizons.
“We’ve worked with some very talented developers in Montreal for a long time, and decided it was time to open a studio there,” said Todd Howard, Game Director and Executive Producer at Bethesda. “It’s exciting to think about the new games we’ll be building together.”
Bethesda Game Studios Montreal has already established a core team of more than 40 developers, spanning both console and mobile development. The studio will be managed by industry veteran Yves Lachance as Studio Director.
“Our collaboration with Bethesda Game Studios has been an exhilarating and memorable journey already,” said Lachance. “We are thrilled to be launching the studio in Montreal and contributing our city’s great game-making talent to the kind of games that Bethesda Game Studios is known for.”
Here is hoping the expansion may lead to the inevitable release of The Elder Scrolls VI sooner rather than later!
