Ubisoft Massive is a Swedish video game studio based in Malmö, Sweden. The company is fully owned by Ubisoft since 2008. The studio is known for the ''Ground Control'' series of real-time tactics video games, ''World in Conflict'', and ''Far Cry 3''. ==History== Massive Entertainment was founded in 1997; they were acquired by Vivendi Universal Games in 2002. In October 2007, they released the game ''World in Conflict'', which has been described in interviews on the company's official website as a further development of the real-time tactics gameplay formula from the ''Ground Control'' games, but set on Earth during the late Cold War. It has also been described as being the largest project for Massive Entertainment so far, with a huge budget. The game was released on 18 September 2007 and won wide critical acclaim, including several nominations for one of the best games of 2007. It was followed by an expansion, ''World in Conflict: Soviet Assault'' in March 2009. On 6 August 2008, Activision Blizzard put up Massive Entertainment for sale after the merger of Activision and Vivendi Games and the subsequent internal reorganization. On 10 November 2008, Ubisoft acquired Massive Entertainment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ubisoft Acquires Massive Entertainment )〕 In March 2009, former CEO Martin Walfisz left Ubisoft Massive.

The purpose of the observation was to record audio of the entire mock battle, so developers could get a better sense of what a battlefield sounds like. In December 2010, Ubisoft confirmed that Massive would be "teaming up on a project for ''Assassin's Creed''". On 5 May 2011, it was announced that Massive Entertainment is collaborating on development of ''Assassin's Creed: Revelations''.,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UBISOFT® UNSHEATHES ASSASSIN'S CREED® REVELATIONS )〕 which was released in November 2011.
