EA to open Montreal studio
EA to open Montreal studio-November 2024
Nov 22, 2024 2:10 PM

  Electronic Arts has today announced that it's planning to open a new game development studio in Montreal. Veteran developer Alain Tascan will be vice president and studio general manager of the new operation and is currently leading the search for a new location and for potential team members.

  "We've had a lot of success growing our studio headquarters in British Columbia," said EA worldwide studio president Don Mattrick. "However, we know there are a lot of talented people who prefer to live and work in the Northeast. After considering several cities in the US and Canada, we decided that Montreal offered the best combination of creative talent, technology infrastructure, and favorable economics."

  "At EA, each of our global studios has a distinctive character based on the games and franchises that are created there," said EA executive vice president Bruce McMillan. "I expect that in time, we could have as many as four major franchises operating out of Montreal."

  We'll bring you more information on this story as soon as it becomes available.
