## Background & Details

Ubisoft is a world leading game studio with 21,000 employees with studio production around the globe. Ubisoft is known for legendary titles such as Assassin's Creed, Far Cry 6, Prince of Persia and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
In 2022, Cyrus and Alex presented Ubisoft's implementation of USD at the 2022 Digipro conference. They will present how the USD pipeline was designed on a microservices architecture to enable 3D file format interchangeability across multiple Ubisoft studio locations and teams.
That Pipeline R&D effort has evolved initially within Game Cinematics at Ubisoft and today is supporting multiple elements of the game development lifecycle.
We are excited to hear from Cyrus and Alex on their USD journey, how Ubisoft leveraged the strengths of a USD implementation and designed around some of the technical limitations of USD within the Games context.
