E3 2019: Ubisoft Teases 'Biggest Ever' E3 Press Conference Pre-Show, Complete with Game Announcements

A good a chance as any to announce a new Rayman I'd say.
Another welcome surprise would be if they resurrected that awesome Scott Pilgrim game for the current gen.

The have done an outstanding job with the last two AC games. They are both huge single player games.

Bring back Prince Of Persia then I'd be really happy.But seriously,the Ubisoft conference is what I'm looking forward to the most.The Assassins Creed games and Far Cry series are awesome,Watchdogs games are great...except for the absolutely terrible cast of characters in the sequel and Mario And Rabbids Kingdom Battle was what I bought my Switch for!Yep,looking forward to this.

@bruhman Far Cry, Watch Dogs, Wildlands, Assassin's Creed, and more all suggest otherwise, with huge single-player/co-op campaigns. Hell, even The Division games are largely playable on your own without needing to worry about online.

Even when GaaS does factor into it, they're about the only company doing it anything like right at the moment.

At one time, the best thing about Ubisoft pressers was the actual presentation, the comedic value - even if it wasn't meant to be funny. In recent years, with EA and Activision dropping the number of games they make a year and preferring to make money on 1/2 games with ridiculous micro-transactional gambling, Ubisoft have become my favourite 3rd party publisher. They haven't been shy on making new IP's too unlike the others that seem to want to make just the cash cow annual/bi-annual franchise loaded with monetised content...

Sounds like the pre-show might be all about updates to current games then save the main event for all new stuff.

@bruhman Bear in mind that I was talking only about GaaS, nothing else.

Whether I enjoy their games or not is largely irrelevant to the discussion; that being said, I enjoy a few of their franchises, others I've never played. I'm certainly not into the GaaS aspect, and I really don't play online much at all... occasionally for co-op/PvE, very rarely for PvP.

When I say Ubi are the only ones doing GaaS anything like right, the point I'm trying to make is two-fold:

1. Unlike the other companies dabbling in this area (most notably Bethesda with Fallout 76 and EA with Anthem), the GaaS elements in Ubi's games at least tend to work, and what doesn't is fixed in a timely fashion.

2. Even if, like me, you don't like that aspect of where gaming is heading, a Ubi title generally tends to have a huge amount of single-player content for you to consume, without having to worry about the online/GaaS aspects of it, and without having to spend a single extra penny on season passes, DLC, or MTX.

Sure, things may be different a few years down the line, but they demonstrably aren't all about GaaS at this point in time.

I'm in the 'Ubisoft are cool' camp.

@BAMozzy really agree with you, I love Ubisoft, they’ve such a diverse catalogue, aren’t afraid to break with tradition when needed and regularly give new ideas a go. Who else in this age would make a game like Steep for gods sake? 😂

@Hego Lets not forget that games like Watchdogs, Division, Skull n Bones and Wildlands - even if it is a spin-off from Ghost Recon like Siege is a spin off of Rainbow Six too are all 'new' IP's this Generation - even if they have still made AC and Far Cry games too. I can't say I am a fan of every Ubisoft game, they are at least continuously making games in quantity and some of them are completely new IP's
