Recently, Ismail was accused of cheating on his wife on Twitter and lying about his marital status.

This person is married. When he starts a relationship with you, know he's married. This is why he doesn't want to talk on the phone or facetime or have things sent to his home. His marriage has been confirmed by 3 people. I was with him for a year on and off before finding out. pic.twitter.com/eomqLCXZTu

At this point in time, Ubisoft hasn’t announced the game’s new creative director.

It seems like the games industry is going into a #MeToo movement, outing not only folks who cheat on their wives, but also sexual predators like acclaimed writer Chris Avellone. We won’t be seeing his writings and narratives on Dying Light 2, Waylanders, and Vampire The Masquerade 2. Even Twitch posted on Twitter where they’re commending the bravery of sexually-harassed victims.
