Ten Studios Working on Assassin’s Creed Unity; Ubisoft Wants to Release Franchises More Often

by Giuseppe Nelva (34 minutes ago) 0

Ubisoft published its Fiscal Year 2014 presentation and there were a few interesting pieces of information in the rather thick document.

First of all we learn that a whopping 10 studios are working on the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Unity, including the lead studio in Montreal. The game is scheduled for release this fall on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

Recent Assassin’s Creed titles always has a lot of manpower and multiple studios behind them, but with this many looks like Ubisoft wants to saga to enter the new generation in full swing.

In addition to that, Ubisoft really believes in the productive potential of its studios, and as we can see as part of the message of the publisher’s CEO Yves Guillemot, intends to release its franchises more often.

Luckily, there’s also a mention for new IPs, and the company seems to be still dedicated to add new blood to its portfolio, while open world and online games still seem to be the focus for new generation development.

Yeah, hopefully not at 30 frames per second at sub 1080p or something ridiculous like that.. I'd rather have 60FPS but I'm pretty sure this title won't be 60FPS. Not sure though.



No please, after playing 4 I finally understand the reason they don't want yearly releases, the climbing mechanics were TERRIBLE in single player



PSn - greencactaur
Nintendo Switch FC - SW - 5152 - 6393 - 5140 Please feel free to add me :)

Even COD wont break yearly formula.



Unless they really do something big I am giving up on the series. AC III was a buggy disaster and AC IV, while better, had the ship segments that really turned me off.

There is already too many Assassin's Creeds. They should make more Rayman games!

COD gets all the slack, yet ubisoft have realeased as many ass creed games since COD 4/Ass creed 1.

It probably has something to do with difference in content.



So many people are buying Assassin's Creed, soon they'll be forced to release three entries per year just to keep up with demand.
