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.

ApocalypseShadow6195d ago

and it better not be just for nintendo wii.

i was thinking of playing that this week.

Dr Pepper6195d ago (Edited 6195d 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.

TruthHurts6195d ago

Is the best game no one played.

you should be ashamed of yourselves. LOL

Seraphim6195d ago (Edited 6195d 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_Lee6194d 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!!!!!

TheXgamerLive6195d ago

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

Rybnik6194d 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.

gigoran844d ago

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

Tacoboto43d 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

Knightofelemia44d 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.

Chocoburger44d 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? 🙄

Rynxie44d ago

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

Profchaos44d 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.

Rynxie44d ago

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

Asplundh44d ago

This is Alan Wake 1, it had physical copies.
