Ubisoft Cancels Four Games, Including Splinter Cell VR And Ghost Recon Frontline

Ubisoft is str8 fire if they just would stick to the simple ideas that got them here.

The PS2+PS3 era were easy for them because they didn't stray...

Post FarCry5 has been pretty sus.

Both GhostRecon games are trash compared to the Xbox360 era GR.

i forced myself to play both of the newer GR titles for about 12 hours each & only got more pissed @ Ubi.

~Why they didn't capitalize on NoMore MetalGearSolid and start a brand new SPlinterCell or new Stealth IP 5 years ago is a tragedy...

Ubisoft has fallen so far. In the PS2/Xbox era they were probably the best game developers/publisher in the business.

All the Clancy games, Prince of Persia's, Beyond Good and Evil, ect... They were strictly about quality games. It was like they were incapable of a bad game. Even the early AC games were great.

I wish these publishers would realize that making a profit is good enough. You can't have year over year growth indefinitely. It's not sustainable, but doesn't stop them from stripping away the quality to try.

A shame really. They used to be such a great game publisher.

This is a good thing.

They shoulda cancelled that shit FPS GR game.

Battle Royale in 2022 & Ubisoft ... lol =))

Ubisoft, would you just come out and say that one of the canceled games was Beyond Good and Evil 2? I know it's never coming out, but I'm sick of having this tiny spark of hope.

A few years ago, I had a meetup at Ubisoft Montreal and as an indie game developer, I had the opportunity to speal with the producer. They invited indie game developpers on their rooftop for a drink and some free food, but to also discuss about the future of Ubisoft.

Something that the procuded told me gave me a bad taste. Ubisoft wanted to move towards Games As a Service, instead of going forward with purely single player games. They are most likely interrested in making money.

The 2 games that might been cancelled, according to ex-employees could be The next Splinter Cell (non-vr) and Beyond Good and Evil 2.

Why is this news? You say WIP games are cancelled all the time, but also don't mention what *these* games were supposed to be nor why exactly they were cancelled. In other words, there's not much of an interesting story here, nor is it particularly educational or informative. I guess it was a slow day?

Recession is coming DUH

Not like the games they do release are worth much.

How did the stock market respond to all the delays and cancellations today?

Meanwhile i think the next division game Division Heartland is still on track? Or no?

Many cancellations, perhaps it is because of the "cancel culture" everyone is writing about.

(A joke. )

I wouldn't get too happy like the comment below.

Knowing Ubisoft. They probably found a project that is even more open world, with even more Multiplayer options, with even more areas to squeeze DLC and NFTs in. That justified the dropping of those game projects.

Who is going to start the parade?!?!

Ubisoft should just go ahead and cancel all of their games.

Wish them the worse. And i hope their NFT plans explode spectacularly.
