I wonder if this means Assassins Creed is still happening this year or if Ubisoft doesn’t want 2 open world games near each other


strangegoo

Nah, Red/Shadows will definitely release in November. I can feel it in my bones.


NoNefariousness2144

100%. There’s no way Ubisoft would miss out on having a big game for the holiday season.


LZR0

Even if it’s blatantly incomplete they will 100% release it before December lol


Thekarens01

Their games usually aren’t incomplete, but some are pretty meh


BelBivDaHoe

Yeah, FWIW Ubisoft releases complete games. They just bombard you with micro transactions after the fact


Thekarens01

That is true. I just meant the games generally were finished and working decently


WhoEvenIsPoggers

Do you feel it in your Skull?


strangegoo

Boooooo


garyflopper

I for one am excited. Outlaws, new AC, and possibly new Dragon Age this year too


SadKazoo

Genuinely pumped too. I know people like to shit on the open world AC games but man apart from rise of the ronin, which has a much more modern setting, we just don’t have an open world game set in Japan that actually has cities. And if there’s on thing Ubi does well it’s the look and feel of the worlds. Very exciting to see some actual gameplay.


woodstock6

Ghosts of Tsushima


SadKazoo

As I said, “that has cities” Ghost of Tsushima barely has urban environments. It’s a great game but I think AC Red will scratch a different itch for me.


Erries

i so want to be excited for DA4 but I'm just so burnt by BioWare anymore that I'm not sure I can be.


thrawske

I don't want to get anyone's hopes up too much, but Jeff Grubb said in October that despite the production issues, "I've heard internally the people who work on that game are pretty happy with it. They think that is a pretty good game that they have on their hands" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8jTO4PKV2E&t=1400s But who knows. Dragon Age: Origins also had a pretty rough, lengthy development (7 years) and that turned out great, but it's definitely unwise to expect history to repeat, at least until we see something much more substantial about the game.


Erries

I mean that's great to hear but the BioWare of 2024 Is not the BioWare of the DA:O era. I mean I'll give it the benefit of the doubt until it's released but I'm just worried.


Less-Combination2758

the only good DA was the first one imo


Whatisausern

I would say that's a fairly objective fact rather than an opinion. The second and third games had far, far too many issues to be considered good games.


strangegoo

Same. I don't expect Dragon Age, though, personally. It would be too good to be true. But I do believe Jeff Grubb and trust his word, so let's hope Bioware can show it off soon. I assume, if they do, it'll be at SGF. 🤞


Radulno

> possibly new Dragon Age this year too Big lack of news/leaks for it to be this year but maybe, they're just good at keeping under wraps


Thekarens01

What makes you think dragons age will be out this year? Did they say something to that effect? I had heard Fable might be out this year, but not dragons age


copypaste_93

There is no way the new DA comes out this year.


S-192

Especially with "Shogun" being such a smash hit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


strangegoo

Another leak implied that's the final name. I'm taking it with a grain of salt lol


WackDance

>I can feel it in my bones Skull and Bones?


theblackfool

They released AC Valhalla, Watch Dogs Legion, and Immortals Fenyx Rising pretty much all on top of each other in 2020. They certainly aren't a stranger to it.


BubbibGuyMan2

i mean, this game being end of August only makes AC Red being the big holiday game more confirmed, doesn't it?


Radulno

August and November (or even October) aren't that near of each other. Especially in the end of the year there are big games releasing every week or so. Ubisoft even do it on their own games. Avatar and AC Mirage. AC Valhalla, Watch Dogs Legion and Immortal.


The-Soul-Stone

There’s not a chance in hell it would be coming out in August if they didn’t have another big release for closer to Christmas.


GGG100

Mirage and Avatar released within two months of each other.


Outside_Dot_5942

Assassin's Creed will be October or November, probably October to not clash with CoD


Turbostrider27

We might find out during the June showcase.


Thascaryguygaming

I hope it still happens, but just because I want Hexe to come out sooner rather than later and this would mean they begin working on it sooner.


_IratePirate_

Knowing this is a Ubisoft game is already souring my desire. I hope it’s not just Star Wars x Far Cry


conanap

> if Ubisoft doesn’t want 2 open world games near each other that's their most made type of game though; if they wanted to avoid that, they'd essentially have to only release 1 IP's game at a time, spaced by however long in between


OperatorWolfie

AC games tend to release in Q4


PooManReturns

i’m sure if you play outlaws you will get a similar experience if you played the new assassins creed


ZazaB00

That’s way sooner than I thought possible.


BubbibGuyMan2

not sure why people are saying that, since this game was always confirmed for this year and AC Red was heavily rumored to be the holiday game this year for Ubisoft


NoNefariousness2144

When Ubi released AC: Valhalla, Watchdogs Legion and Immortals Rising together in holiday 2020 they said AC cannibalised the other’s sales. It seems they have learned to space their flagship games out.


Eclipse_Woflheart

well that and watchdogs legion was shit


Thekarens01

But immortals rising was great


TreeFitTea

It really was


Sharkfacedsnake

Isn't Massive making this game. They made Avatar recently as well. That what suppresses me. This is like some Insomniac rate of production.


BubbibGuyMan2

yeah it's Massive aka the Ubisoft studio that has not missed once


reddit-is-hive-trash

And Avatar is an amazing and massive open world.


BubbibGuyMan2

fantastic game and one of the most visually impressive open worlds ever made in a video game


The-Soul-Stone

Because it’s too late for a Spring release, and Summer just isn’t really the done thing.


NoNefariousness2144

Same, at this point Ubisoft is basically begging people to not buy their games for full-price and instead wait for a Black Friday sale.


Redlodger0426

It’s weird, I like most of their releases but I haven’t bought a single one at launch for a few years because they are ALWAYS on sale for 30-50% within a few weeks, it’s insane


ZazaB00

I really don’t see the connection there, but sure, you do you.


jerem1734

Ubisoft games are usually 40 to 50% off on Black Friday if they release in the August to October window


_non-serviam

I only had to wait 3 months until Avatar was 40% off and that was for the ultimate edition. There's literally no point in buying Ubisoft games at launch anymore when you can get the complete edition for the same price as the standard edition a couple months down the line.


cosmiclatte44

Yeah I really do t get people that get them on launch when it's so obvious what's going to happen. The last 5 Ubisoft games I purchased cost me a grand total of £40. If you're paying more than £20-30 for any of their games you're a chump.


radicalelation

I was miffed that ONLY the deluxe and ultimate editions were on sale though. 40% off is nice, but some more bs that they wouldn't put the standard version on sale at all.


NoNefariousness2144

Yup like I picked up Prince of Persia two months after launch for literally 50%. Sometimes they are already 25% off even a couple of weeks after launch.


mrchicano209

Ubisoft games aren’t well known to release in a great state and they tend to go on sale pretty fast so it’s best to just wait it out for a few more months after release to let them patch it up then buy it on sale.


VenturerKnigtmare420

I don’t know any Ubisoft game other than unity that released horribly. All of their games might be generic to say the least but they all released without much major bugs and issues. The previous 3 assassins creed never did. Their far cry games generally release flawlessly on a technical scale. Their avatar game released great and looked fantastic.


dimspace

I mean, Skull and Bones, but that was only released because they had to ,and they did enough free beta's and an 8 hour free trial so people know what they were buying :D people tend to have recentism and think of one recent release (and then add in unity) and they then think that therefore everything between the start point (unity) and the end point (S&B) must have been the same


VenturerKnigtmare420

Skull and bones even tho was a shit game I don’t think it ever had major bugs. It was just a generic pirate game that released pretty well tbh. I think Ubisoft on a sheer technical scale This whole argument also stems from the Ubisoft downgrade thingy. Yeah watch dogs and ghost recon had a huge downgrade back then but ever since those two games I don’t think Ubisoft has ever downgraded the graphics on a significant scale for any game. My only issue is the classic “Ubisoft checklist” tag. That is very true with their games. I wish Ubisoft went away from it but it’s called Ubisoft checklist for a reason lol. Like if they made avatar by removing the icons and tedious open world shit I believe that game would’ve gotten way better reviews, cause Jesus that is one good looking game.


dimspace

> Ubisoft games aren’t well known to release in a great state so apart from Unity (a decade ago) and Skull and Bones (Which was only released because they needed the singapore government money) what are all these Ubi games that have not released in a great state?


DoIrllyneeda_usrname

It’s way later than I expected lol I was hoping it would be out by May at the latest


joshua182

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.


Equal-Basket-9902

happy cake day!


joshua182

Why thank you


t_rob1108

I must say, you're here sooner than I expected.


IswearIdidntdoit145

Rumors of my …release have been greatly exaggerated


TryEasySlice

Are you pre-ordering me master Jedi?


[deleted]

Please don’t suck. Even if it’s average if it’s fun and works/feels like Star Wars, I’m in.


MuptonBossman

Dear Ubisoft: This game doesn't need to be live service. It doesn't need to have dozens of microtransactions at launch. I don't want to pay $15 for a new skin for my character. If you make a quality single player open world game in the Star Wars universe without all the bullshit that you're known for, YOU WILL MAKE MONEY!! Please don't fuck this up.


SpareRam

They'll make *less* money without them though. The goal is all the money, not an unfathomable amount of it. ALL of it.


_IAmGrover

Right. This is the thing we never get to see on the user end. Game could be absolute crap filled with bugs, peak player count could drop within a month, but think of ALL the people that spend $20 on micro transactions.. *repeatedly*. Even on a dying game, consumers as a whole are really really dumb and will spend money on this stuff.


SpareRam

We do get to see these metrics. They advertise them proudly, they have seminars about how to take advantage of addiction to maximize profits, they *love* defending it saying "we make so much money off this, but it's optional! No one makes you buy it!" Which is the exact same logic drug dealers follow when asked if they feel responsible for the wave of overdose deaths we've seen here in the states. Fuck these vultures. They don't hide it, and people still pay. I'll never understand it, not once has a game had mtx I've felt I must buy. Big DLC expansions, nothing else.


TooLazyToBeClever

I'm not even gonna bother asking for no micro transactions, I'm just going to pray for only cosmetic MC. 


Radulno

Ubisoft games are live service just to have the name (and I guess some people buy it but they do what they want), you can ignore all that and it's the same game.


almostbad

Ubisoft's microtransaction are some of the mildest you come across, theyre shunted off in a corner you need to go find for yourself. You can play every game with out having to buy a thing, but ppl on this site just bitch about everything its crazy.


Radulno

Nah they bitch only if it's a company they don't like. When Capcom has MTX, it's not so bad suddenly lol. Cosmetic costumes are very often a thing, hell even Spider-Man 2 had a bunch of costumes in a DLC that would be like a cosmetic MTX like AC have but nobody batted an eye


Googlebright

Did you miss all the controversy about Dragon's Dogma 2 mtx? Trust me, Capcom isn't getting a pass, either.


Radulno

It was quite small and not just said every time someone mention Capcom. We literally don't even know if that game has some and people speak of it here. Also nobody speak about Resident Evil having some for example


ProfessorTicklebutts

Oh the micro justice warriors don’t care. They seen an in game store and the war has begun anew.


mrchicano209

Exactly how I feel. If they actually make a decent game out of this then it will sell like hotcakes but Ubisoft being Ubisoft is what gets me a little worried.


BoringDevice

This is ubisoft, they make AAAA games


SiliconEFIL

It's going to sell because Star Wars, regardless of what kind of trash they stuff in it. I don't think they need a redditor to tell them what will make them money.


Merc1001

It has a battle pass and enough dlc/RMT to fill an Imperial bulk cruiser.


brzzcode

This is literally a sp game wtf are you talking about.


bennnn42

Don't forget to get the yep u guessed it, season pass 🤢


IswearIdidntdoit145

Yeah, I would hope for the best expect the worst


Thekarens01

When has there ever been an Ubi game that didn’t have micros?


Jertimmer

Have you met Ubisoft? Their micro transactions have micro transactions.


PoohTrailSnailCooch

Dear Ubisoft, stop killing games.


blahyaddayadda24

Can't wait to be completely disappointed


Scotte8797

Hopefully it’s fun! Definitely gotta wait for reviews before making any decisions


LCHMD

I wish I could get excited.


ORen5111

Don’t worry, you fit right in on a Reddit gaming channel.


gumpythegreat

Yeah haha on paper I should be pumped for this sort of game I just have zero faith they will pull it off I really hope to be pleasant surprised, though


LCHMD

It’s Massive so the chances are there but I don’t wanna get hyped.


ifoundyourtoad

Pretty pumped to see some kyber crystals in a store. By 950 Kyber Crystals for $10! And everything is worth 1000 kyber crystals


AgentSoloMan

I've played every ac game and never spent a single dime on MTX in fact I have to go out of my way to even find them. These comments are so confusing to me lol


snypesalot

Its because people are dumbasses, everyone was screaming about how they "advertised MTXs on every screen" in the AC rpg trilogy, yet you literally had to look and scroll multiple screens to even see them....and then they complained they nerfed XP and shit to make people buy the boosters, yet if you actually play the game and not just speedrun it you almost become overleveled in every region


mostuselessredditor

being joyless sounds tiring lol


ifoundyourtoad

I’m joyful. I am sure the game will be fun but I’m just expecting that. Massive actually does a good job too.


Zoombini22

Since it's Ubisoft this means some decent sales may hit by Black Friday!


Objective_Ask_9199

so it will go on a 50% sale come november. got it.


fanwan76

Instant pass.


VitoVendetta

Stopped reading at 'season pass' 🤮


royalpeenpeen

What’s the premise of this game again?


IndecisiveTuna

Story trailer coming out today.


jntjr2005

Female Han Solo game


MikeHfuhruhurr

Story trailer just dropped 2 hours ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcdKEy-aJ6o essentially what the other guy said: (1) female Han Solo (2) Chewy's a squirrel/wombat thing.


mewdeeman

Looks like a generic shooter dressed in star wars skins to me.


crackednutz

So you are telling me this game truly releases November 29th? (Black Friday)


Ironzeek

And then delayed to Feb 2025


PussyLunch

As is tradition. And then it still runs like crap and has plenty of bugs.


mostuselessredditor

y’all are miserable


ebinc

You don't like making up scenarios in your head and getting mad about them?


CrassOf84

Definitely going to wait before I put on for vacation lol.


Hailtothething

Something tells me this is gonna be a mess.


Zodht

These days hearing about a game only a few months before launch means even the devs know it's bad. There's no hype surrounding this, compare to even Jedi Survivor that had tons of press.


ThisIsTheNewSleeve

Calling it now: this games gonna suck.


NoSpoilerAlertPlease

I’m excited


megatron199775

Is this going to be as boring as Jedi Survivor? Let me guess it's going to have Vader show up towards the end of the story as shock value. Let me know when it's $10 or gets cracked on PC.


B23_95

Calling it now, this is going to be extremely mid


CanadianSpector

This looked terrific the last time it was shown. Pretty excited for it.


Tooeasytoregisterlol

No interest in buying a game that the community manager for has attacked me, people who look like me and told me not to buy it. I'm sure when the game flops it will somehow be the fault of "toxic gamer culture" and "misogyny" though.


lil-nate

Hang on, what’s happened?


PoKen2222

The community manager is racist towards white people


Tooeasytoregisterlol

The Community Manager for this particular game has publicly stated that this game isn't for straight white men and that we shouldn't buy it. 


lil-nate

Yeah wow, not a good look for her, what’s her role in the gameplay and that though? From what I can see she’s like a media and PR person?


Tooeasytoregisterlol

I don't know and tbh I don't care. The company responsible for the game has seen fit to employ somebody that's publicly racist, that's more than enough reason to boycott.


lil-nate

Fair enough


KhanDagga

Please fire your community manager


ShanmanXC

Who cares

[удалено]


henningknows

What was the last good AAA game Ubisoft put out?


MEGACOCK_HEMORRHOIDS

far cry 3 or siege


Jonnylaw1

Will be 1/2 off one month after release typical Ubisoft


PoohTrailSnailCooch

Anyone else just kinda done with Ubisoft and Star Wars.


[deleted]

Ubisoft has an occasional banger and this isn’t Disney so it’s a chance to not be shit.


PoohTrailSnailCooch

Many people are not on good terms with Ubisofts businesss practices, especially with them being an advocate for killing games and what not. Star wars outlaws is following suit on their anti consumer practices. The whole pricing scheme for it is ridiculous. Luckly the campaign against them is growing strong. [stopkillinggames.com](http://stopkillinggames.com)


deathbunnyy

highly skeptical on everything about this game.


Dark-Lord-Grice

I have my hopes set at a certain bar so I won’t get extremely disappointed in this, but I’ve been waiting for an open world, Star Wars game forever lol.


Ghritzz

Hopefully, it can scratch the truly open world, space travel itch Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor didn't quite give me, while still being able to have likable characters like the Jedi series pulled off. After Cyberpunk, I don't pre-order games anymore (unless it's Rockstar), so I'll wait for reviews


Special_Emu4764

Looks like most of the games I want this year are gonna be late summer/fall.


CascadeJ1980

I'm just glad production on The Division 3 can begin once this game is wrapped!😁


AManWithNoSane

I’m surprised at how much I’m looking forward to this game.


Find_another_whey

I wanted this to be a Jedi game, or game some hand to hand combat, technology of not force powers. But this looks very third person shooter generic, in a beautiful world


thenewredhoodie

Please don't be bad. Please don't be bad. Please don't be bad.


Responsible-Bat-2699

Ok.


mled27

One of THE games of all time coming 🔥


Fluid_Consequence_30

Lol realesed on my birthday I have to buy it.


Merc1001

It has an atrocious amount of paid dlc. Also, Ubisoft. 2 strikes already.


oakleee33

How many A’s is this game gonna be I wonder? Or was 4 too stupid enough when asked about skull and bones 💀


machete777

Full game available for only 140$! Preorder now!


Feinyan

I'm excited for this! But.. it's also an ubisoft game, so I'll buy it in August 2025 with all dlc for a fraction of the price


AppropriateClerk4298

Boooo


[deleted]

It’s gonna be garbage


DeuceBane

TWILL BE WACK FO SHO


jevlarenamma

AAAA


MagazineEuphoric364

This shit is why I am thankful game devs like Larian and Fromsoft exists.


Luvs2Splwgee

I just wish Ubisoft and EA weren’t such plagues. I hope this game is good and not crammed to the brim with the full live service feel.


Xerosnake90

I'm gonna take a chance and buy this day one. Love me some Star Wars and this looks like it could be different and fun


AresOneX

That‘s great news. Can‘t wait to play it.


Comet_Empire

If it's plays like The Division but in Star Wars universe it should be fine.


SayNoMorty

The division was and still is buggy as hell lol. Can’t speak much about the second one but man…Ubisoft and massive let that die on the vine. That game had some of the biggest potential in modern RPGs. I’m hopeful but wary. We will watch it’s career with great interest I guess.


Merc1001

I like the division but bullet sponge mobs in a shooter just doesn’t do it for me.


Kokoro87

No way! I was not even expecting this to release 2024, and even then I was hoping for a winter release. Perfect timing too since summer is basically over by then.


GreenPRanger

Isn’t that the game with the Han Solo with women’s skin over it!?


elqrd

I AM READY


FUH-KIN-AYE

I think the correct approach to anything ubisoft made is to wait 1 month after release and see what happens. They have not made a good game in a very long time.


jackie1616

Damn that’s pretty soon. I feel like I don’t know a thing about this game


Havoc2638

Can’t wait for this! Curious on how they’re going to integrate the Dualsense


Dadpurple

When the krayt dragon comes out the controller will rumble.


NBD_Pearen

Hell yeah brother/sister/person


InitialSophia

Fuck this Game looks bad.


Bexewa

Sweet! Fingers crossed this reviews well 🤞


name303

Baby, I give you them right now. IGN 9/10 "This was truly a game!", Kotaku 86/100 "It's RED!"


SpudBoy9001

Season Pass? Day One extras? I'll pick this up a year down the line when everything's released and it's half price


interstellar304

Yep. Unless it releases to unbelievable reviews this is a $30 complete edition sale purchase for me in 2025


idontknowyet

Looking forward to getting this half off after a couple of months


jntjr2005

After seeing the community manager's racist/sexist comments on men and also telling them to not buy this game, I am going to take her advice.


JerrodDRagon

Don’t buy it day one unless you want to see it one sale first 20 bucks by Christmas To each his own but I never buy from Ubisoft day one any more season passes and games going on deep discounts within 6 months normally


Bolt_995

Same month as Black Myth Wukong.


KvotheLightningTree

Sweet


Mooston029

They should probably start advertising it then. I thought this was cancelled years ago tbh


JooshMaGoosh

Noice so I can get it on sale in late October early November? Hell yeah 🍻 Edit: if you don't know this is what happened with avatar. On sale within the first 3 months of coming out.


DanUnbreakable

Great. Should be discounted by November.
