PSBlog Feed: Ubisoft at PlayStation Experience

[Commander Fury]

Peanut butter and jelly. Harold and Kumar. Video games and Las Vegas. What do these dynamic duos have in common? They’re all absolutely perfect pairings! That’s why Ubisoft is so excited to participate in PlayStation Experience, taking place in lovely Las Vegas on December 6th and 7th.

PlayStation fans — especially readers of this blog — might already know about this massive two-day community event, which is dedicated to gamers from all corners of the world. Offering up some of the best PlayStation games across multiple platforms, the Experience includes opportunities to go hands-on with games, attend industry panels, and nab all kinds of goodies from contests and giveaways.

So, what does this mean for the Ubisoft aficionados out there? Within the 400,000 square feet of gaming nirvana, you’ll find the latest titles from our lineup, including:

Assassin’s Creed Unity. Rebuilt from the ground up for next-gen, this game reinvents the beloved blockbuster franchise by offering unprecedented control and unparalleled depth. Set during the French Revolution, Unity features massive crowds (up to 5,000 NPCs on screen) in a gorgeous re-creation of Paris. With a greater focus on stealth, the game includes new ways to customize your Assassin and seamlessly go from exploring Paris on your own to a wide variety of replayable co-op missions.

Assassin’s Creed Rogue. See Assassin’s Creed from the other side… In Rogue, you play as Shay, who turns away from the Brotherhood to join the Templars and become an Assassin hunter. Set during the French and Indian War, the game is the darkest chapter yet in the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Keep an eye out for some familiar faces from recent Assassin’s games!

The Crew. Head out on the highway in this next-gen driving game. Explore the game’s re-creation of America — a massive open-world playground full of all kinds of challenges, populated with friends and potential rivals. Join up with your crew, align with a faction, or simply go it alone and drive from coast to coast in your fully customized cars.

Far Cry 4. Set in the Himalayan nation of Kyrat — a breathtakingly beautiful region full of natural and man-made dangers — Far Cry 4 delivers a new story every second. How will you survive? Write your own story and decide the fate of this war-torn nation using anything from weaponized elephants to a wide array of armaments.

Speaking of Far Cry 4, fans will also be treated to an exclusive panel at PlayStation Experience — Far Cry 4: From the Developer’s Mind to the Gamer’s Imagination. Get a rare peek behind the curtain and find out how the developers built this open world. And since Far Cry 4 is all about the player experience, the panelists will also show off some of their favorite fan-created moments. Who knows — maybe you’ll see your video of that special moment with the honey badger…
