I don't game much anymore, but Canadian devs shouldn't be ignored.

On mobile, Rebuild 3 is developed in Canada. Of course, Death Road to Canada was dreamed up by abguy from Kitchener Ontario and it kicks ass!

On all major platforms Ubisoft has some awesome games from their Canadian studios like the Farcry series (Ubisoft Montreal & Ubisoft Toronto), Rainbow Six Seige, For Honor, and Watch Dogs.

Dead by Daylight is also developed by a Canadian game studio.

Share your favourite Canadian developers and game studios!

My disdain for Ubisoft is chafing against my Canadian patriotism!

I might sit this one out until they stop requiring an account for every game.

stop requiring an account for every game.

Yeah, this is annoying, and so many companies do this. I don't mind if they want me to log in to save progress, especially in cross-platform games, but we know damn well they use "the account" as another way to track, data-harvest, and invade someone's privacy.

Also to stop game resales, which seems to have completely died off.

Ubisoft is not really a "Canadian company" as far as I am concerned, they have Canadian employees, which is nice I suppose, but they're a French company. At least it's not American, but I prefer when the owners at least nominally live here so as much of my dollars go back into my own country as possible. Lots of great indie games out there, I guess if you can't live without AAA games then maybe Ubisoft is one of the better choices, but I think it's preferable when we can support our locally-owned indie studios instead. I'm tired of being pillaged for profit by foreign companies.
