Hello! I’m James Nadiger. I love making fun games. I love writing new stories. I love working with cool people.
I’m passionate about merging systemic gameplay with worldbuilding and character development to create special moments in both the player’s story and the game’s fiction. I use every narrative tool that games have to offer to deliver a rich and immersive AAA game experience. I’m currently a narrative director at Ubisoft Montreal.
Random facts about me:
I’m half-Japanese, on my mother’s side
Born in Vancouver, BC, currently living in Montreal, QC (yes, I speak French!)
I like to cook, started making ramen during the pandemic
I do love games, movies, TV, comics, etc., I love Lego because it’s the only hobby that doesn’t involve me picking stories apart
