Ubisoft will announce multiple Assassin’s Creed titles during Ubisoft Forward – report

More than just Mirage and Infinity, apparently. Ubisoft will host its Ubisoft Forward showcase this weekend, and it seems the company plans to announce multiple Assassin’s Creed projects. The company has already promised to discuss Assassin’s Creed Mirage during the showcase, and it’s possible it will touch upon Assassin’s Creed Infinity as well. Ubisoft promised previously that additional information regarding “the future” of the Assassin’s Creed franchise would be shared during Ubisoft Forward, and rumor has it the company will announce three more projects for the series. According to Tom Henderson, the Assassin’s Creed games we will hear about have…

Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time Remake delayed to 2022

Apparently something has gone wrong with time, because Ubisoft have confirmed that the Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time Remake is now due in 2022. Considering the remake of the pleasing time-rewinding stab-o-platfomer was supposedly three months away from launch when they announced it in 2020, yeesh, someone at Ubi must have dropped their magical hourglass. So no, they won’t be showing it at their E3 showcase this week either. Read more

Roller Champions should skate out next year

When Ubisoft announced Roller Champions with great fanfare and a public alpha test at E3 2019 but only a few months later announced a delay and went a bit quiet, I thought it might join the ranks of their many seemingly-dead games. But those forgotten games are on: Gods & Monsters is due in December (even if it has a daft new name), the space game teased in Watch Dogs 2 is out next month, Ubi even swear Skull & Bones is still happening, and now they’ve announced Roller Champions ‘rolly’ (really) will launch in 2021. It’s a bit like…

Far Cry 3 is spawning a VR game for cyberarcades

Y’know that X-Files episode where Mulder and Scully wear cybervests and jack into VR to fight a cyberbabe? What if that, but Far Cry 3? I am thrilled to tell that Far Cry VR: Dive Into Insanity is what, a new game coming to a type of VR arcade where you and your pals strap on cybergoggles and cyberarmour and hold cyberguns and run around a room playing together.

The Division 2’s Summit is a 100-storey skyscraper from hell

Have you watched… The Raid? The folks behind The Division 2 clearly have, because the urban murder RPG’s next update is adding a whopping great skyscraper to the streets of post-collapse New York. With the front doors opening later this month, The Summit presents you and your pals with a daunting 100-storey deathtrap of office desks and heavy firearms to test yourself against. (more…)

Ubisoft CEO apologises to people they didn’t protect

Three hours before tonight’s Ubisoft Forward stream, their latest blast of announcements and trailers, CEO Yves Guillemot issued a public video apology to people hurt by the company’s failure to protect them from abusive employees. This year, accusations of sexual harassment, abuse, and discrimination were made against numerous Ubisoft employees and studios, including several high-ranking people. If Guillemot’s apology video was planned to clear the air so today can just be feel-good marketing, it’s unfortunate that only seven hours prior, a new report came out with allegations of abusive behaviour at Nadeo, the Ubisoft studio who make Trackmania.
