WB Montreal’s Directors, Team Leaders and more have left the studio

WB Games Montreal has historically resided within the shadow of Rocksteady Games – especially as both studios have worked primarily on DC properties in the past. In the wake of Gotham Knights’ less-than-stellar reception, it seems as though many of WB Montreal’s upper-level developers have left the studio.

As collated by ResetEra user ‘est1992’ WB Montreal has in the past few months suffered from a number of its ‘top brass’ developers leaving the studio – with a bunch of them parting ways within the same week.

Just some of the developers who have left WB Montreal include:

• Geoff Ellenor (Game director)
• Patrick Redding (Creative Director)
• Fleur Marty (Executive Producer)

While no reasons were given for these departures, it is safe to assume that the middling reception of Gotham Knights has at least something to do with it.

WB Montreal are said to be working on another new DC game, and while no official information has been shared regarding the specificities of this project, it will be interesting to see just how much these recent departures will affect the final product – for better or for worse.
