Ubisoft Forward has come and gone, and with it a whole load of information on the publisher’s lineup of upcoming PC games. Even with E3 gone, the summer game announcement schedule is deep in progress, and today should bring us plenty of details ahead of the Assassin’s Creed Valhalla release date, the Far Cry 6 release date, and the Watch Dogs Legion release date.
Aside from the games, it’s impossible to ignore what’s been going on with Ubisoft more broadly right now – in the wake of unrest from within the company as a result of reported sexual harassment and misconduct over the years, a number of Ubisoft executives have resigned or been replaced. The company says today’s show has been pre-recorded, and will not address these issues in any capacity.
With all that in mind, however, Ubisoft has still showcased its games today, alongside a Watch Dogs 2 giveaway to encourage you to tune in.
Here’s everything you need to know from Ubisoft Forward.
