Ubisoft, developing AAA video games from Barcelona

The French company Ubisoft is a worldwide benchmark in the video games sector. In Barcelona, the firm opened a studio in 1998 and, since then, has participated in several blockbuster games such as Assassin's Creed or Rainbow Six.

Ubisoft takes advantage of the robust mobile industry in Barcelona-Catalonia, enriched by indies, developers, small studios, and big corporations that have built Southern Europe’s formidable video game hub. Two other reasons to keep growing in Barcelona-Catalonia are its high quality of life and a strong pool of talent.

For Javier, Studio Manager at Ubisoft Barcelona, the city's video games ecosystem has evolved significantly during the last 20 years. As a result, Barcelona has a robust mobile industry, and it's, in fact, the mobile's world capital. AAA, PC, and console studios are increasingly settling in the city, making it even more exciting for everyone.
