‘Things are going to get wild’
Ubisofthas announcedthat it will reveal a brand new title later today, set within gun-toting, hard-salutin’ Tom Clancy universe.
A short teaser features the “Tom Clancy’s” branding, crudely plastered with a string of anarchic stickers, graffiti, and bill posters. A teasing message warns players that “Things are going to get wild”, while the logo’s apostrophe has been replaced by an “x”, possibly hinting at a crossover, though this could be mere coincidence. The truth will out today at 11:00 PT / 14:00 ET / 19:00 BST, when Ubisoft takes to its social media channels to reveal the new Tom Clancy title.
As for today’s Tom Clancy reveal…Splinter Cellfans should probably cool their hype jets. The reveal is likely to be Ubisoft’s previously leaked “BattleCat” title, a first-person ability-based shooter. Recent clips posted by outletsGamespotandIGNseem to corroborate this. Footage shows fast-paced, futuristic, gung-ho action not dissimilar to that of more standard FPS fare such as Activision’sCall of Dutyand Electronic Arts’Battlefieldfranchises.
Ubisoft recently delayed two of its upcoming release, counter-terrorist alien shooterRainbow Six: ExtractionandRiders Republic— the latter of whichalsofeatures the focus-group-cool obsession with neon colors and painted crosses all over the shop.Rainbow Six Extractionwill now launch in January 2022, whileRiders Republicwill get the green flag October 28.
