Abstergo Entertainment

Founded as Abstergo Entertainment in 2010, the company's main mediums included video games, movies and other media sourced from genetic memories. Their games were released in partnership with Ubisoft. The division's first major release was a 2012 game entitled Liberation, entailing the story of the Assassin Aveline de Grandpré. Since 2013, Abstergo Entertainment offices in Montreal have been focusing on the Sample 17 Project, involving the genetic memories harvested from Desmond Miles' DNA, in hopes of finding new, interesting settings for future products. The two current projects derived from these memories are a video game titled Pirates of Nightmares, and a feature film titled Devils of the Caribbean, both focusing on Desmond's ancestor, Edward Kenway. In a similar spirit, they are also reviewing the genetic memories retrieved from other Assassins throughout history, a venture referred to as the Identity Project. In the future, the company hopes to open "sample collection" locations, where individuals can donate samples of their genetic code to the Abstergo system, allowing the company access to exciting new scenarios locked away within DNA. These genetic memories would then be explored by research analysts, and, if deemed good investments, would go into production.
