Graphic novels published by Ubisoft will now be distributed to the book trade by Diamond Book Distributors, the company announced today.  Diamond Comic Distributors will continue to offer Ubisoft graphic novels to the comic trade.

Ubisoft titles distributed under the agreement will include Assassins Creed The Fall, Assassins Creed The Chain and Assassins Creed Brahman. Ubisoft graphic novels tie in to video game story lines.

The new agreement covers titles published by Ubisoft itself, under its UbiWorkshop imprint.  In addition to doing graphic novels under its own imprint, Ubisoft will also continue to license other companies to produce graphic novels as well, a company spokesperson told ICv2.  Titan Books has an ongoing license, and releases a new title this month.
