Ubisoft to Push Open World Output
Assassin's Creed IV and Watch_Dogs among most pre-ordered next-gen titles
Ubisoft has been talking up its sandbox game output, saying that it has "a unique opportunity in the industry to bring open-world on a regular basis."
During the company's annual investor call, CEO Yves Guillemot said, "We have put to the market nine open-world games over the last seven years, including two in 2013.
“Through those years, we have developed technologies, we have grown the experience of our teams, we have put in place pre-sized processes to ensure efficient collaboration between multiple studios working simultaneously on the same massive maps. This gives us a unique opportunity in the industry to bring open-world on a regular basis."
He noted that two of his company's open-word games, Assassin's Creed IV and Watch_Dogs, are among the five most pre-ordered titles on Xbox One and PS4.
Elsewhere on the open world front, Ubisoft also has Tom Clancy's The Division in development and has franchises including Far Cry and (if you feel happy including a purely vehicle-based game) Driver.
