Default Prime writer Chris Stewart got some hands-on time with Ubisoft's upcoming ZombiU for the Wii U this week. Find out what he thought of the game and whether he's still excited about it after trying it out.
"I was lucky enough this week to get some time hands-on with ZombiU, the game that I was most excited about after the E3 dust settled. There was no messing about, I just got straight into the game. Having watched the person in front of me maim zombies with a cricket bat until he was mobbed and eaten, I opted for a less visceral approach. After stopping to revel in a videogame first (I had never beaten a member of the Queen’s Guard to death with a cricket bat before), I set off."
Start date and time for when Ubisoft Forward 2024 will begin along with a guide for how to get free rewards by just watching.
Ubisoft Forward is back and live from L.A. with an exciting line-up of games and announcements. Watch live June 10 2024 at 12PM PDT/9PM CEST. Preshow starts at 11.30AM PDT/8.30PM CEST
Star Wars Outlawa has some real potential. I loved the Fallen Order games but the abundant timed jumps at times took me out of the narrative as they could be come frustrating. The branching options and status with factions looks great.
Prince of Persia 2026…REALLY? And that’s all they had for us…a candle.
Jesus. Imagine if they didn’t give it to a shitty support studio and tried to sell us a sloppy remake years ago
Now we have (no hate on quality here) two PoP games no one asked for. We could have been anticipating a Warrior Within remake by now.
LOL!! They should have even announced it. They should have just waited a year from now to announce it with some gameplay. Lame.
No surprises just updates on existing games & games that have already been announced. A lame show.
Get a fresh look at Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and more on June 10.
That'd be too good if true.
But Henderson also leaked that next Far Cry setting was targeting some asian island.
With their shitty practices I really don’t care what Ubisoft announces until they reverse their course
Assassin's Creed Hexe is what I wanna hear about most. Yes I wanna play as a witch with magic during the 16 century witch trials in Germany (as per rumors). Sign me up
Yeah, Hex sounds amazing to me as well, and I've been playing since AC 1. I'm real curious how are they gonna fit the magic into the game, maybe in similar way the dlc introduced gods and god abilities. but I love that I've heard its gonna have a horror vibe.
The studio just completed Avatar and busy with Outlaws and also got their F2P Heartland cancelled ... IMO, Division 3 will surely come but it'll take more time.
I'd be most thrilled if Ubisoft greenlits a sequel or at least a remake of the studio's first game i.e World in Conflict
I would get hyped about Hexe. If the rumors are true, UBI might get a gold edition purchase out of me.
Hopefully gameplay of ac shadows or star wars outlaws, if they finally announce the new far cry I'm definitely getting that, far cry still fun af and gorgeous games, yeah ubisoft has their faults but atleast they're not copying souls like games their titles still have identity
I'm going to be an outlier amongst the rest of these comments.... give us something NEW! I'm pretty burnt out on Ubisoft franchises, unless you're giving us a new Rayman game!
*Edit - imagine what they could do with a Rayman 3D game in this day and age. I say now is the time to revisit the series.
Would love a AAA PoP too or a back to roots Ghost Recon (none of the open world stuff)
Hell yes! Ghost recon in the style of the originals with real consequences, permanent and all!
I love Rayman, played it a ton with my kids years ago. But Ubisoft puts dumb crap in their games. MTs , paid tiers , always online requirement for single player games and as they stand now I could see them doing that to Rayman
Their microtransaction monetization scheme on it will lie somewhere between good and evil!
Haha JK.... it'll be completely evil. 🙃
It's a damn shame that people don't seem to read these previews. They're actually pretty interesting.
Good read and not your run of the mill Preview. Thanks for the expression and detail.
(there was only one other ZombiU preview as well written as this one and nobody read it but me).
But almost all have been positive preview. I will buy this game.
nice : )
