We're on the home stretch of major game releases for 2015. One of the very last AAA games that will hit before the Christmas period is Rainbow Six: Siege

Adam Cook writes for Bleeding Cool… After originally being a Wii U exclusive title (and a good one at that), ZombiU became Zombi, then was released on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One earlier this year. But Ubisoft is going one further, and bringing the exclusive-cum-digital-only-all-platform game to retail, as a boxed copy, as of January 21st,[...]

Ubisoft has detailed its plans for how Rainbow Six: Siege will have long term appeal, and is going to be introducing new content in the form of "seasons" (they added the quote marks, not us) that will match up to ranked gameplay, over the course of a year. According to a post on the official Rainbow[...]

Adam Cook writes for Bleeding Cool… Ubisoft has taken questions from its fans about upcoming third-person online shooter, The Division, and posted the results in the form of a video.

I don't give it much thought throughout the year, unless I'm covering it in the news cycle, yet every year, I find myself jumping into Ubisoft's flagship series quite looking forward to it Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag was one of my favorite games of 2013 and despite having reservations, I feel Unity was pretty unfairly[...]

For all that Ubisoft tried to hype the game, it ended up shitting the bed in the most embarrassing way you could imagine, and that was even before I get to the outcry about the lack of diversity and female protagonist for the series The game's new engine was so data-intensive that the bugs made[...]

Assassin's Creed Syndicate is out tomorrow, and with that, for those who care, you'll be able to run around the streets of Victorian London, assassinating lots of gang members and Templars. Too that, Ubisoft have made the very obvious pun and have released a trailer set to a remix of the Cure's famous London Calling[...]

It seems Ubisoft were listening too After a prolonged reveal event, Far Cry Primal has finally been announced It's coming pretty soon too The game will[...]

For a lot of people with early PlayStation 4s and Xbox Ones, their original 500GB hard drives just aren't enough. Looking at the upcoming release schedule

Last year, Assassin's Creed Unity had a pretty prominent option to pay for goods in the game. There were some chests that, more or less, wanted you to

Rainbow Six: Siege is a neat game, and the heavy focus on tactical considerations is very against the grain for a modern shooter. The game really could be

Ubisoft have recognised the network problems with the game and said that they are now extending the beta by three days to make it up to fans It will now end on October 1st.  I've been at EGX the last few days so I haven't been playing, but what I played at E3 had me impressed[...]

Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is really turning up the heat on its marketing campaign now. We heard just the other day about the pre-order Jack the Ripper

Rainbow Six Siege will live or die on the quality of its multplayer. The depth of the experience and how replayable it is will likely dictate how long the

It will be interesting to see how Ubisoft handle this. There he is I was wondering when Jack the Ripper would turn up in Assassin's Creed: Syndicate, and now we have an answer.

All the carriages, all the people, those taller buildings, the wider streets; they take a lot of computing power, and we're there now. Honestly, this sounds a little bit like marketing speech, as I'm sure Ubisoft could have made an approximation if they wanted to previously I am glad they have waited for the power of[...]

I've been a huge fan of Austin Wintory's work for a while. His grammy nominated work for Journey speaks for itself, and the work he has put into other
