Ubisoft dropped the trailer for Far Cry 5 today and my oh my, there's nothing about this that makes me feel at ease If anything, it's got a murder-filled Deliverance quality to it that's just disturbing enough to make me excited and a little on edge at the same time The setting looks absolutely gorgeous[...]

Despite Ubisoft saying last week that they weren't working on Far Cry 5, ScreenRant disagrees After receiving reports that Ubisoft is filming in Montana, ScreenRant's  Rob Keyes has hypothesized that the filming is for a live action sequence needed for Far Cry 5 The evidence for this?

Earlier today, Ubisoft's Instagram account posted an image of Rock Island with the text "An island that we never really left Does that remind you of something?" next to it, in French naturally So of course people took that to mean that a new title in the series – which hasn't even been announced – would take[...]

Ubisoft promised back in 2008 that they were working on Beyond Good and Evil 2, but lets be honest, do we really want it from Ubisoft now? Not only is it nothing like Ubisoft's current slate of games, they'd inevitably tie in micro-transactions (possibly the way they did in For Honor which would be awful), but[...]

In a lengthy blog post today, UbiSoft released the details of their latest DLC content coming to Watch Dogs 2 The game itself kinda dropped off the map after it's November release and failed to garner the kind of big holiday purchases the company were looking for It also didn't help matters that critics padded[...]

On Reddit, Ubisoft says they've handed out around 1,500 3-day bans, and around 4,000 warnings to players who've been detected using the exploit[...]
