Ubisoft CCO Talks Six New IPs / Hints at Beyond Good & Evil 2 + Top 20 New IPs

This article over at Gameplayer entitled 'Starting From Scratch' looks into the risks and rewards of working on a new IP. It includes an in-depth interview with Ubisoft's Chief Creative Officer Serge Hascoet, and also explores the top 20 new IPs heading our way.

"As much as we look forward to the likes of 'Halo 3' and 'Grand Theft Auto 4', there is nothing quite like the wonderment of seeing a trick performed for the very first time. With 'Red Steel' now on the market and 'Assassin's Creed' deep in production, we wonder if the magician has anything left up his sleeve. Thankfully, it would appear that his sleeves are extremely well-stocked. "We are currently working on six new IPs that will be launched within the next two years," Hascoet says."

Beyond good and evil 2? Nice. Quite the submission by the way, a lot of related games.

ApocalypseShadow6165d ago

and it better not be just for nintendo wii.

i was thinking of playing that this week.

Dr Pepper6165d ago (Edited 6165d ago )

I can't wait for Alan Wake. A free-roaming horror game with great graphics sounds (and looks) like a lot of fun to me.

TruthHurts6165d ago

Is the best game no one played.

you should be ashamed of yourselves. LOL

Seraphim6165d ago (Edited 6165d ago )

while it certainly ranks up there I'd have to either say flat out, or tied w/ Beyond Good and Evil is Okami. Another one of the best that no one played. Although it seems that more people may have played Okami...

Great article though. Even better was the fact they listed 20 great new IPs coming soon...

Ubisoft is awesome. Sure they don't always release the ports and are sequel heavy but unlike other developers [cough, EA] at least Ubi does take it's earnings and invest into new IPs [instead of crappy Movie licenses & profit]. They make an effort to give back to gamers and the gaming community, and have come up w/ some brilliant games in a relatively short period of time...

Phantom_Lee6165d ago

It's so sad that Spider-man 3 sold more than games like Okami and Beyond Good And Evil....

*point to the world* what's wrong with u people!!!!!

TheXgamerLive6165d ago

I was addicted from start to finsh. I'd love to see a BG&E2.

Rybnik6165d ago

Yes, this is something we all can agree on, there needs to be a sequel made!!! (As long as its not Wii exclusive) lol

Kind of a goody story...

On a serious note, that is why I try activating gift cards asap. It's happened to me where the store didnt scan it right where the card was unusuable. Happened at Wally World.

gigoran815d ago

wait, that place is real? national lampoon wasn't kidding?

Tacoboto14d ago

I just bought two of the MonsterVerse Godzilla movies on 4K - both had digital copies expiring in 2023. Both were actually expired.

I'd be surprised but it's WB, of course they'd actually expire them

Knightofelemia15d ago

Usually most of those redemption card have an expiry date on them. If they expired all buyer did was buy recycled paper. And some of those codes are country locked to certain countries. I buy a card from the States I can't use it in Canada.

Chocoburger15d ago

Dumb and silly story. She wasted her money for no reason.

Is it really that hard to go to Steam or GOG. She spent $240, when its currently 70% off on GOG, and only costs $4.49.

Gee, I wonder, should I spend $240 on eBay, or $4.49 on GOG? 🙄

Rynxie15d ago

Most likely she wanted to resell a few or most of them. However, it was a too good to be true situation.

Profchaos15d ago

So in short she paid $240.00 assuming usd for a bunch on unactivated game codes.

I still don't understand why I guess cause there's not a physical version and she wanted something for a collection or art project.

Rynxie15d ago

No, most likely to resell. However, she ended up getting screwed.

Asplundh15d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.

L.A. Noire And Bully — Rockstar's Lost Gems That Deserve A Sequel As Much As GTA

Hanzala from eXputer: "I do appreciate GTA 6, Rockstar, but if I could trade it for a new L.A. Noire or a Bully game, I'd do so in a heartbeat."

Skuletor25d ago

How are they lost? You can get L.A. Noire on Steam, PS5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch and Bully is on the PS5 and Xbox Series too.

Psychonaut8525d ago

I want a new Manhunt game. But that will never happen.

Demetrius24d ago

Mfs are too sensitive nowadays and would cry instead of being concerned bout real world problems

Demetrius24d ago

Whenever gta 6 launch we won't be getting another rockstar title for another 10 years lol but on the positive side they bou to come back n show how open world supposed to be done 🔥

Skuletor24d ago

I won't expect any singleplayer DLC like IV's The Lost & Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony after it launches either

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro53d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv7253d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_53d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga53d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos53d ago (Edited 53d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt2353d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball200054d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin54d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole54d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix54d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel198953d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor54d ago (Edited 54d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel198953d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2
