Jade Raymond joins Google as vice president

By Jon Ryan

Jade Raymond revealed that she would move to Google in the role of vice president.

The announcement came in the form of a tweet from Raymond's personal account late Tuesday afternoon.

Raymond is probably best known as the founder of Motive Studios and Ubisoft Toronto, where she was executive producer of games like Assassin's Creed 2, Watch Dogs and Splinter Cell Blacklist before her departure in 2014.

Although its role in the technology giant is not known at the moment, Google has recently revealed its intention to unveil "The Future of Gaming" at GDC next week. Be sure to check back with IGN to see what their incursion into the video game world looks like, even though this awesome controller will not be one of them.

JR is the editor of IGN Characteristics, and is super curious to see what is Google's game plan for games. He will certainly shout about it on Twitter.
