Review Assassin's Creed Shadows (PS5) - Striking Open World RPG Is a Real Cut Above
The daimyo is cast
An Assassin's Creed game set in Japan. For generations, this was the dream — but when Ghost of Tsushima released in 2020, it felt like the desire dissipated. Sony and Sucker Punch had beaten Ubisoft to the, er, punch, and so, in a weird roundabout way, Assassin's Creed Shadows almost feels like it's late to its own party. As...
Review Star Wars Outlaws (PS5) - Open World Pledge Produces a Superficial Space Outing
Villainous to the end
Star Wars Outlaws has been billed as the first-ever open world game set in the Star Wars universe; a claim that immediately puts developer Massive Entertainment on the back foot. Ignoring the fact Star Wars Galaxies did it first over two decades ago, it opens the game up to an extra layer of scrutiny: is it even open world in...
Bravo, Yade
It’s strange to think that Beyond Good & Evil was a failure on release. It was critically well-received but sales were poor, and it took years to gain a cult following. Now, it’s revered as a masterpiece, gathering a devoted fan base that still pines for the sequel that’s all but passed into legend. Developed by Ubisoft...
Review XDefiant (PS5) - Solid Shooter Does Little to Stand Out, But Still Has Potential
Needs to take the leap of faith on its own premise
The multiplayer shooter genre has been in an odd flux these last few years. Call of Duty just isn’t quite what it used to be, Battlefield 2042 missed the mark somewhat, and even Apex Legends has dipped in interest as it cruises into its 21st season of content. This is where a crop of new kids on...
Review Skull and Bones (PS5) - Solid Sea-RPG Ships First-Rate Naval Gameplay
Stranger tides
Skull and Bones is, despite half a dozen delays and some lingering dark clouds, one of the most addictive and vibrant piracy simulators we've ever played; not that many exist. It offers a surprising amount of freedom in how players approach it, and it looks and runs beautifully on PS5, even during large-scale fleet battles. Developer...
Review Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (PS5) - A Slick, Satisfying, and Royally Robust Metroidvania
Crowning glory
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is the first major game in Ubisoft's beloved series in a very long time, so we have to give the publisher some kudos for not playing it safe. While a straightforward remake of The Sands of Time is also on the way, this entry is a side-scrolling action platformer with a Metroidvania structure. It...

Siege stays strong
If you can believe it, Rainbow Six Siege is coming up on its 10th anniversary. That’s 10 years of new operators, new maps, meta changes, and plenty of battle passes. However, a literal decade down the line and Ubisoft is far from done with one of its few live service hits. In fact, Rainbow Six Siege X, a celebratory revamp of...

News Ubisoft Confirms Rayman Project in 'Exploration Phase' Following Report of Remake
Limb-itless
It's been over 10 years since the release of Rayman Legends, the last main game in Ubisoft's mascot platformer series. There hasn't been any whiff of a new title over the years — that is, until now, thanks to a new report from Insider Gaming. According to the site, Ubisoft is working on a Rayman Remake. While it's not made clear which...

Preview Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Brings Back the Series with Style
Here today, Sargon tomorrow
Recently we went hands-on with Ubisoft's upcoming Metroidvania, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. It's slashing its way onto PS5 and PS4 in January, bringing the series back to PlayStation for the first time since 2010. But after all this time, how is this latest adventure shaping up?

Forward or backward?
It was Ubisoft's turn in the summer spotlight with Ubisoft Forward, and now the showcase has come to a close. As expected, we saw the likes of Assassin's Creed Mirage, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and plenty more. While it was a pretty predictable run of games for the French publisher, we want...

News Ubisoft Helps Out Its Writers by Implementing AI Tech to Do Their Job for Them
Thanks, Ubisoft
Ubisoft is a publisher unafraid of tackling new technology head-on. The company is always supportive of new platform launches, and seems willing to embrace cutting edge tech where possible — even the questionable stuff. It's already attempted to implement NFTs in its games with the Ubisoft Quartz initiative, which went about as...

News Beyond Good & Evil 2 Just Found Its New Lead Writer
15 years after it was first announced
Beyond Good & Evil 2 has been a long time coming and is apparently still a long way off. At this point, it's kind of hard to believe this thing is ever coming out. We did get some movement today, though, with the reveal that the project has found a new lead writer. Sarah Arellano announced yesterday in a...

Movie Review Werewolves Within - A Fun Comedy Horror Lacking Some Bite
Lycan it
You'd be forgiven for thinking this movie has nothing to do with games at all, but Werewolves Within is in fact based on a relatively obscure PlayStation VR game of the same name (itself based on a tabletop game simply named Werewolf). Ubisoft's virtual reality title is a social multiplayer game in which players are assigned various roles...

Soapbox Rainbow Six: Siege Is My Favorite Shooter of All Time and I Hate It
A wretched hive of scum and villainy
The Push Square PlayStation 5 review of Rainbow Six: Siege went through quite a few changes. Originally a monstrously large article, the word count was trimmed by scaling back the amount of time I spent focusing on the game’s problems with cheating and toxicity. But I still have more to say on the subject. And...

News Ubisoft Will Release Three or Four Major Games Before March 2020
Keep 'em coming
Ubisoft is obviously a massive player in the video game business, but we'd argue it's one of the publishers that's really improved over the course of this generation. Watch Dogs 2, Assassin's Creed Origins, and Far Cry 5 were all well received, pushing their respective franchises in different directions or to new heights. That looks...

News Ubisoft Boss Says It's Looking Into Bringing Multiplayer Back to Assassin's Creed
If the tech is there
The Assassin's Creed games had online multiplayer for a time, but it was eventually ditched somewhere along the line.

In a new interview with Game Informer, Ubisoft's chief...

E3 2018 VR Title Transference Gets New Trailer and Release Window
Ubisoft's VR support continues
Transference was a curiosity at Ubisoft's E3 2018 conference last year.
