has seemingly taken a🏅nother huge step towards its gaming ambitions.

The company has appointed gaming industry veteran Jade Raymond as a vice president, with the former Ubisoft and Electronic Arts producer making the via her Twitter account on Tuesday evening. She did not say♛ what her exact role will be, however.

"I’m excited to finally be able to share that I have joined Google as VP!" she twee🌞ted.

She would later take up a post at Ubisoft Montreal, where she would help produce 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Assassin's Creed, going on to serve as the executive producer for Assassin's Creed 2, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Watch Dogs and Tom Clancy's 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

She also helped open 🔴the Ubisoft Toronto Studio, serving as its managing director and helping with expansion. Raymond founded the Montreal-based Motive Studios after rejoining EA in 2015 but left the company again last year⛦. She was handed the Legend Award at the 8th Annual New York Game Awards back in January.

The 43-year-old Canadian talent will no doubt help give Google that gaming industry push💞 it's looking for. And the n🌄ews of her appointment comes just before it will host a keynote at this month's Game Developers Conference.

Reports of a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:leaked patent for a controller design suggests that the company could soon announce a console of its ownꦍ as rumors🔯 say Google is keen on competing with Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft in a realm they have dominated for a great many years.

Google is also reported as being in cahoots with Sega, with the two entities believed to be 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:working together on said console.

Amid all of the reports an♓d rumors, there's really no telling just what Google is planning, but it's definitely something regarding videogames.

Bringing Raymond in at such a time ha🎶s already fueled the speculation and her hiring is definitely a step in the right direction. But making a name in an industry bossed by the aforementioned three will also prove a huge challeng🍒e.
