Some of the work I’ve done in Ubisoft Barcelona as Technical Animator appears in the new Artstation’s ArtBlast!
In order:
- Brute’s Chainable Combos (Anim: Ivan Mahindo)
- Takedown Camera rework (Anim from original BlackFlag)
- Agile’s Dodges (Anim: David Ormeño)

Como sabéis, el equipo de Assassin's Creed de Ubisoft Barcelona fue completamente eliminado. Quería aprovechar para compartir el arte de mis compañeros y así dar visibilidad a todo ese talento.
Hilo en los comentarios!
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Art Blast is up, check it out!
It's crazy to see the ammount of talent on a single page.

NOT ONLY underwater! Barcelona Studio also did:
- All main Boss fights (Anim + CombatDesign) + NPC fight (w/ QUE support)
- A lot of Mains quests, Contracts and Biomes
- Cinematic design
- Boarding
- ..And freaking more!
Also Comms team was laid off
Btw you dropped this mate 👑
I love Black Flag Resynced. It's one of my favourite games this year. But please don't be fooled by thinking they are back. It's a remake of a beloved old game from the old Ubisoft. Most of the new content in the game shows you the current quality standards, but because the existing material is so strong, it's easy for people to overlook it. They'll only be back once they deliver new high quality games. Keyword: "NEW".
Also we can't forget how they treated the Barcelona studio. Worked on the underwater sections of the game and got laid off as a reward.

Las trabajadoras de Ubisoft han hablado y convocal a un paro total para reivindicar sus derechos.
¡Basta ya de recortes injustificados! ¡No al ERE de Ubisoft Barcelona!

ALT cartel de huelga contra los despidos en ubisoft barcelona, 14, 15, y 16 de julio
ALT En el marco de las negociaciones del ERE en Ubisoft Barcelona, en el que se plantea despedir a gran parte del equipo que ha trabajado en el reciente Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced, CGT convoca tres días de paro total. Durante las jornadas del 14, 15 y 16 de julio, los trabajadores están llamados a la huelga. El comité de empresa y CCOO se adhieren a la convocatoria.
ALT Las reivindicaciones de la plantilla son las mismas que cuando comenzó la negociación: - Reducción del número de personas afectadas, sobre todo atendiendo a que el último Assassin's Creed ha sido uno de los proyectos más exitosos de la saga en los últimos años. - Que el paquete compensatorio realmente facilite las vidas de los trabajadores, y no apenas superando el mínimo legal como plantea la empresa. - Blindar un compromiso de no realización de un nuevo ERE
Addendum:
- @_Tom_Henderson_ notes, underwater is NOT ONLY the work done in BCN -insider-gaming.com/ubisoft-s…
- Our work was also collaborative with SIN and QUE among others
- We have Permanent Contracts, not "Project Based". We expected move to another project, like the past 30 years
In any case, game is great! People did an awesome remake and we are really proud of it :) Buy it or not, that decision is in your hands.

Ubisoft Barcelona developers who contributed to Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced have spoken out about the company's plans to lay them off — just as their final project becomes a commercial success, selling 2 million copies in around 24 hours. bit.ly/4pmKFdc

51 Employees, many of whom worked on Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, will celebrate its launch today by being laid off. At Ubisoft, even a successful launch won't keep you safe from layoffs.

At the same time, while still in the positive mood around release, and the seemingly positive results, we must not forget about the staff that worked on Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced and is involved in Ubisoft’s announced and proposed layoffs, including the staff at Ubisoft Barcelona.
The same message also goes towards the devs affected by the recent closures of the Winnipeg and Belgrade studios
Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced looks to be on track to perform better than Assassin's Creed Shadows!
According to data company Alinea:
🔵 Resynced has sold over 300k pre-order units on Steam before launch
🔵 This equates to "almost $14m in gross revenue"
🔵 Resynced has sold 5.39x more copies on PC / Steam than Shadows did in the same pre-release window
Hoy ha sido un dia agridulce. Lleno de alegría y tristeza. Un lanzamiento manchado por la avaricia corporativa que nos esta matando. Esta pieza lleva 3 años de trabajo con un equipo del que jamás olvidaré. Agradecido por AC Barcelona Team por todo el amor y conocimiento.
SummerGameFest, E3, TGS o da igual dónde, pero ver el juego en el que llevas trabajando tantos años circulando por las redes es una mezcla entre emoción y vulnerabilidad absoluta.
Two days remain until #SummerGameFest fires up! 🔥🔥
Do not miss a moment LIVE from Dolby Theatre in LA with special guests, surprises and a global celebration of video games in front of thousands.

I’m happy with the results achieved for combat. It was a big collab from a lot of experts across different teams. Proud to be part of it!
En nada me podeis ver aquí un ratillo
