Women don't get to reach auteur status in video games. Even in film, it's rare to see women talked about as auteurs. Naturally, a contingent of feminists reject auteur theory.
What? We just had the biggest film of the year released by a woman regularly talked about along the lines of auteur theory, Chloe Zhao. Almost all the commentary about the film mentioned her as if she alone had produced the film, even despite Kevin Feige's well known role in every Marvel production. Earlier in the year saw a competing attempt in Patty Jenkins's WW1984, the sequel to (until possibly this year) the highest grossing film to date by a female director, which has made her very in demand and promoted her to the director/writer/producer triple-threat credit which actually gave her total command over 1984. Kathryn Bigelow has had her greatest success since leaving James Cameron but she's long been an innovative and personally active (i.e. takes the same risks as the actors) director like him.
Maybe they aren't literally described as auteurs, but that's because auteur theory has become so dominant in mainstream film discussion that it's simply assumed to be true. Some "feminists" may reject auteur theory (and the theory in general has been criticized since it started, including by those feted by it) but it absolutely dominates film discussion.
As to the claim about video games, auteur theory is much weaker there, but Jade Raymond very much benefited from it. And she wasn't even the "director" of Assassins Creed!
