Which studio led development of Assassin's Creed Origins?

Ubisoft Montreal led development of Assassin's Creed Origins.

Ubisoft Montreal developed Origins as a major reinvention of the Assassin's Creed formula. The studio created the game's open-world version of ancient Egypt, its role-playing systems, and Bayek's origin story for the Hidden Ones.

Origins was released in 2017 after the series took a one-year break following Assassin's Creed Syndicate. That development pause allowed the team to expand exploration, gear, character levels, dialogue choices, and combat based on hit points and equipment.

Ubisoft Quebec led Assassin's Creed Odyssey and Assassin's Creed Syndicate, while Ubisoft Singapore contributed to several series projects, particularly naval technology. Ubisoft Toronto is another major Canadian studio, but it was not the lead studio for Origins. These neighboring studios are often confused because Ubisoft develops the franchise through international collaboration.
