Want to learn a new musical instrument? If you do, some of you might recall that Ubisoft attempted to go down this path back in 2011 with Rocksmith. There was a sequel in 2014, but things have quieted down since then, at least until today where Ubisoft has announced the revival to its Rocksmith series with Rocksmith+.

Back in 2020, Ubisoft announced the next installment in its Far Cry series with Far Cry 6. The game was initially set for a release in February 2021, but that clearly did not pan out. It was later suggested that it might have been moved to March 2021, but that again obviously did not work out.

Watch Dogs: Legion was released last year and if you haven’t played it but were planning on doing so with a next-gen console, then this might be good news for you. This is because Ubisoft has announced that they will be introducing a new mode to the game in the form of a performance boost.

For gamers of Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, we’re sure that many of you have been looking forward to the launch of the game’s first major expansion, Wrath of the Druids. Unfortunately for you, Ubisoft has posted an update on the Assassin’s Creed official Twitter account where they have announced that the expansion has been delayed.

If you have been playing Ubisoft’s Watch Dogs: Legion, then you might have heard that the company plans on introducing an online multiplayer mode for the game. The good news is that multiplayer for consoles is in the works and should be released soon, but unfortunately for PC gamers, you’ll have to wait.

Putting aside any potential privacy concerns regarding saving items into the cloud, cloud storage and syncing is actually a pretty amazing tool. This is because it allows you to access content from anywhere on any device, and typically speaking, companies tend to invest in robust hardware with 24/7 support, meaning that your storage should be pretty secure.

The Watch Dogs franchise is essentially a cyberpunk-style game about hacking, and in a rather ironic turn of events, it appears that hackers have managed to hack Watch Dogs: Legion and stole the source code where they are now threatening to release the code online which could be rather damaging for the company and its intellectual properties.

The price of games have increased over the years. Right now, the price most can expect to pay for triple A titles are $60, but some companies such as 2K have increased those prices to $70 for games designed for next-gen consoles like Sony’s PS5 and the upcoming Microsoft Xbox Series X.

In addition to confirming the launch date of Far Cry 6, Ubisoft has also confirmed the release date of their other games, such as Assassin’s Creed Valhalla which was originally announced back in April. For those excited to get their hands on the next installment in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, you will only need to wait a few more months.

Last week, Ubisoft teased the announcement of the next installment in the Far Cry franchise with Far Cry 6. The company at that time did not mention when the game would be released, but a leaked listing hinted that it would be coming in February 2021. Turns out the listing was accurate because the official release date for the game has been set for the 18th of February, 2021.

There have been rumors that Ubisoft is working on a new Far Cry game, and it looks like those rumors have since been proven true as the company has shared a very short teaser video on Twitter in which they reveal the game’s upcoming villain. This is particularly exciting as this is a person that many, many people are no doubt familiar with.

Gamers like getting value for money out of their games. This can come in the form of the time it takes to complete a game, how replayable it is, and so on. However, just because a game takes 100 hours to complete doesn’t make it better. There are plenty of simple and short games out there that are much more compelling.

Ubisoft’s approach to the Assassin’s Creed franchise has been to release a new title every year. However, in the recent years, the company has opted to change that up and the last time we saw a major title was back in 2018 with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. For fans of the franchise who have been looking forward to a new title, you’re in luck.

The last time we saw a Prince of Persia title was back in 2008. This means that it has been 12 years since a new Prince of Persia game was released. The semi-good news is that Ubisoft hasn’t completely abandoned the franchise yet because the company has since announced a new Prince of Persia VR escape room.

If you’re a fan of the Far Cry series and you’re wondering when the next Far Cry game will be launched, you might be interested to learn that according to a rumor, it seems that there is a good chance we might be seeing Far Cry 6 released by March 2021.

While movies that are based on video games tend to do rather poorly on the big screen, animations seem to be faring better. Take for example the Angry Birds movie which did surprisingly well, and it’s not just limited to movies either, Netflix’s Castlevania has also been extremely well received.

If that wasn’t enough for you and you would like to see more Assassin’s Creed games launch for the console, you might be interested to learn that Assassin’s Creed: The Rebel Collection has been announced for the Switch during the Nintendo Direct event.

Ubisoft will be launching its Uplay+ game subscription service later this year for both PC and Google Stadia. It said back when the service was announced at E3 last month that more than 100 games will be included in the service but didn’t say which ones. The company has now provided more information about the titles that will be a part of this subscription service.

Ubisoft wants a piece of the game subscription action as well and the publisher has now announced its very own service at E3 2019. UPlay Plus is a game subscription service for PC gamers which will provide subscribers with access to more than 100 titles published by Ubisoft. The service isn’t all that dissimilar to EA’s Origin Access or Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass for PC.

While games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band might not be as popular as it once was back in the day, it seems that games such as the Just Dance franchise are still going on strong.
