Following his reported firing from Ubisoft last year, Assassin's Creed creator Patrice Desilets has opened a new studio in Montreal called Panache Digital Games. He announced the news on Twitter.

No information is available about the studio's first game, but Desilets teased that he will "talk to you soon." He appears to be drawn to moose, as Panache's logo is a pair of moose antlers. You can also see two of the majestic creatures in the background of the image above, from the studio's site.

Panache's other co-founder is Jean-Francois Boivin, another former Ubisoft veteran who was fired in 2013 following Ubisoft's dismissal of Desilets.

Desilets originally left Ubisoft in 2010 to head up THQ Montreal and work on an all-new franchise. When THQ went belly-up, Ubisoft purchased the studio and its games, meaning Desilets was again a Ubisoft employee.

Despite some initial uncertainty, the publisher at the time expected Desilets to stay on board at the developer. This, of course, would later change. Ubisoft fired Desilets in May 2013, and he later claimed that "Ubisoft's actions [were] baseless and without merit."

In June 2013, Desilets sued Ubisoft for $400,000 and the rights to purchase 1666, which he was working on at THQ Montreal before its collapse. It is unclear if Desilets was successful in obtaining the 1666 rights. We'll have more on this story as it develops.
