E3 2011: Expect news on Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, Just Dance, and more as France’s top publisher arrives in LA.
LOS ANGELES–When Ubisoft takes the stage at the Los Angeles Theater stage as part of the 2011 Electronic Entertainment Expo on Monday, there are a few topics everyone knows the publisher will touch upon.
The newly announced Assassin’s Creed: Revelations will undoubtedly be on display, as will the recently delayed–and possibly Kinect-enabled–Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. It also seems like a veritable certainty that Ubisoft will have plenty to share about its burgeoning rhythm genre catalog, particularly as it pertains to the Just Dance franchise.
Of course, Ubisoft could also offer a few surprises. The publisher has yet to return to I Am Alive since unveiling it with great fanfare at E3 2008. 2008 was also the year that Ubisoft announced and then went dark on Beyond Good and Evil 2. Ubisoft also has a number of dormant franchises, including Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six and Far Cry. Plus, isn’t Jade Raymond at work on something in Toronto?
The real joy–be it tongue-in-cheek, or otherwise–will be seeing whether Ubisoft once again catches the industry off guard with something zany in 2011. More laser tag high jinks, perhaps?
