Veteran developer Luc Couture has left Ubisoft after roughly 24 years, the company confirmed through his social media announcement this week. Couture spent the bulk of his career at the publisher working across multiple franchises and production roles.

Couture is best known for his contributions to the Assassin's Creed series, where he influenced the structure and design of numerous entries as a level designer and later as a design director. Colleagues and industry observers have credited his work with helping to shape level layouts and player progression in several titles within the franchise.

The departure continues a run of high-profile exits affecting Ubisoft's development teams in recent years, reducing the company's roster of long-serving staff with deep institutional knowledge. Ubisoft has not provided additional comment on Couture's exit beyond noting the announcement on his channels.
