Ubisoft to announce more Switch games "quite soon"
- Thread starter Nirolak
- Start date
Mortal Kombat on the SNES.

Random guesses or stuff leaked through distributors / retailers (I remember you posting other "leaks" - especially release dates - in that sense).

Yeah, it is so absurd...and people still see just Mario and think all Nintendo allows on their platforms are kid friendly games. And you can tell them ALWAYS that Nintendo changed so much in the last 20 years (!!!) but they still believe they are right. This forum is a good example for this tbh.

Well it wasn't just Mortal Kombat, it was also how Sega began advertising BECAUSE of the Mortal Kombat thing.

I wish they would just bring Chessmaster to Switch. If they could release ZombiU for Wii U after more than 25 years of the original, they can bring something like Chessmaster to Switch.
Snowdrop was optimized for Switch so at this point they can pretty much do whatever they want within confines of specs and scalability.
They will still be very selective I am sure but its good news anyways that there is a line of support developing due to good sales of Switch etc

A past coworker once remarked that you can't shoot people on Nintendo systems.
Do we know which games are developed using the snowdrop engine? Like, is Assassin's Creed developed on it? I know The Division, South Park Fractured Butthole and Mario + Rabbids are, but do we know of any other titles?
Well, Nintendo do the humane thing in their games: they drown folk with paint.

South Park is a possibility depending on the specs it needs to run.
I feel like another old port is more likely though. Maybe Beyond Good and Evil HD.

Starlink?
Starlink and Avatar (which is releasing in 2020).
Nah, just my guesses at what cheap, family-friendly ports would be possible.
Right. I looked up a list, these are the known projects:
Tom Clancy's The Division
South Park: The Fractured but Whole
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Avatar Project
Starlink: Battle for Atlas
Of course, these are only the known projects, they will have several unknown projects using the engine.
I would buy this in an instant but it wont happen. 60fps in Multiplayer would be pretty tough to pull off I believe.
Maybe the next iteration of Rainbow Six in some form.

The AVATAR game is likely.
They ported the first one everywhere.
I wonder if they'd be more inclined to greenlight smaller project like Grow Home or Ubi Art games and push them as $40 retail Switch games

Ubisoft was clear they don't intend to make another Rainbow Six for 5+ years in favor of updating Siege.
Yeah I would think so, especially since the west doesn't have a release date for FE Warriors so this could be a good time to reveal that.

This probably.
To be fair, it wasn't that long ago that Nintendo denied Binding of Isaac from being on the 3DS(or was it WiiU?) due to content.
Thread off to a great start.
PoP x Fire Emblem, baby.
PoP could do quite well on Switch I think.

I should note that the new Avatar game is a The Division like online service game instead of a more traditional licensed title.

I mean, if there wasn't an announcement included, it's not "quite soon" enough.

My insane prediction:
Rayman Legends
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Steep
Rayman Legends
South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Steep
Not surprising, they badly wanted to support it, they had a few smaller projects and then the big Rabbids Mario exclusive. The min they saw it was gonna be successful, i'm sure they greenlight a lof of games, they also have the studio power to port games.
People forget WiiU had AC 3 and AC 4, Watch_Dogs, Splinter Cell as AAA ports

My guess is Switch ports of AC Origins and maybe Far Cry 5.
third party direct seems very plausible.
Recent platinum stuff, rayman origins de, this and some other stuff like new tales of, taiko, blaz blue, etc.

Probably will announce release dates for Rayman, Monopoly, and Just Dance.
Possibly get a new game announcement or port of existing game or two. I could see any of Rocksmith, PoP, South Park, chess master or Rainbow six getting announced. I could also see Steep being cancelled and maybe that team is working on a 1080 game in the Snowdrop engine.

I was rather bummed it never game out either. I played at e3 2011 on that horrible prototype controller and rather enjoyed what i played.
Investors meeting, a financial get-together where Ubisoft explains its forecast for the fiscal year.
I doubt that tbh. they already announced Starlink, which doesn't strike me as a low budget (not high AAA budget either, mind you). They do genuinely seem on board with the Switch. Would be cool if they translated that to their AAA portfolio too, but I really doubt Mario + Rabbids has any big influence on that decision.

Do you think they would say they have more to announce soon, if this was the case?
I dont think so.
Other than that, as long as the Switch is selling like it is - third party will find a way to sell games on it. They wouldnt ignore it forever.

I can see South Park happening as well as another original game involving a nintendo ip.
Hoping for this, and perhaps some kind of Child of Light news.
It will be Just Dance and some kind of ridiculous Rabbids game.
Assassin's Creed : Hyrule
