Οι χαμηλες πωλησεις του Syndicate κανουν την Ubisoft να αναθεωρησουν την ετησια κυκλοφορια του τιτλου, ολα αυτα συμφωνα με φημες που ειδαν το φως της δημοσιοτητας σημερα. Οι πληροφοριες μιλουν για κυκλοφορια το 2017 για το επομενο παιχνιδι, το οποιο θα διαδραματιζεται στην Αρχαία Αιγυπτο. Το παιχνιδι φερει την κωδικη ονομασια Empire.
Επισης διερευσε οτι θα εχουμε φετος κυκλοφορια του watch dogs 2 που θα διαδραματιζεται στο San Francisco αυτη την φορα. Πιθανα η Ubisoft θα προσπαθησει να εχει εναλλαξ τους δυο τιτλους, ανα χρονια, ετσι ωστε να δινει και περισσοτερο χρονο για την αναπτυξη τους, αλλα ταυτοχρονα να εχει ενα μεγαλο open world παιχνιδι καθε Φθινοπωρο.
Every fall for the past six years, Ubisoft has released at least one big newAssassinΆs Creed game. This year, the mega-publisher could be breaking tradition, skipping fall for the first time since 2009, according to a number of sources speaking both to Kotaku and others.
The next AssassinΆs Creed, which we believe is set in ancient Egypt and code-named Empire, wonΆt launch until 2017, according to both a new online rumor and sources speaking to Kotaku. One person familiar with UbisoftΆs upcoming gaming plans told me this afternoon that the decision to delayEmpire from fall 2016 was made after 2014Άs disappointing Unity, and that this bump will allow the development team more room to improve and polish the game. The source said this bi-annual approach could be a new trend for AssassinΆs Creed, which has suffered from franchise fatigue in recent years.
Rumors about Empire originated this morning on the 4chan boards, of all places, where an anonymous poster claiming to be a developer at Ubisoft wrote that AssassinΆs Creed would be skipping this year and that 2017Άs big game would be set in Egypt. Although I havenΆt been able to confirm the veracity of this 4chan poster—whose posts are compiled on NeoGAF here—everything he wrote matches up with what IΆve heard independently for months.
IΆd heard last year from three different people familiar with goings-on at Ubisoft that the next big AssassinΆs Creed would be set in ancient Egypt. Since this morning, two other independent sources have contacted me to corroborate that. I heard about the code name Empire from two of those sources. Three of them told me the game would indeed launch in 2017. Months ago, one source told me the game would also take place in ancient Rome, although that may have changed; the 4chan poster says some sections had been removed from the game. (“There are talks about making a trilogy of this same character, so they might explore Greece/Rome next,” the poster wrote.)
ItΆs a good time for a change in UbisoftΆs annual schedule. Although last fallΆs AssassinΆs Creed Syndicate was excellent, it still had some of the technical awkwardness—fidgety controls, easily confused enemy AI—that had become accepted as part of the annual, not-fully-polished AssassinΆs Creed norm. It also continued to raise questions of franchise fatigue among even the most hardcore series fans. With staggered development teams working on each release for roughly two-year periods, Ubisoft has released nine major console and PC-based AssassinΆs Creed games since the franchise started in 2007.
Many have called for the company to take a break from the annual schedule, especially after the fall of 2014. That year, Ubisoft released two major AssassinΆs Creed games—the buggy Unity and the surprisingly goodRogue—on the same day. The disappointment of Unity may have even negatively impacted sales of Syndicate, according to Ubisoft executives.
With or without a big game, weΆll still see plenty of AssassinΆs Creed this year; Ubisoft will release two sidescrollers in January and February as well as the Michael Fassbender movie on December 21, 2016. Ubisoft also recently registered the website domain “assassinscreedcollection.com,” which presumably refers to a compilation of older games. That could make for a nice stopgap this fall.
A possible Ubisoft substitution for this fallΆs big AssassinΆs Creed could beWatch Dogs 2, which we hear will be out later this year and set in San Francisco.
