Ubisoft Confirms Five AAA Games Planned for Release in Late 2020, Early 2021

Ubisoft will release five new AAA games in 2020-2021, with three of them getting released by the end of this year and two being released in early 2021. And none of them will be Beyond Good and Evil 2. “We have evolved our organizational structure in recent months in order to strengthen our focus on high-potential titles, and we are very excited about the idea of releasing five new AAA games in 2020-21,” said Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot during the Q3 FY2020 investor call. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=all-the-big-games-coming-in-2020&captions=true"] During the Q&A portion, Guillemot followed up on that statement by confirming, at the least, that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is not one of the five planned AAA games set to be released this year. Ubisoft previously announced, then delayed a slate of AAA games including Watch Dogs Legion, Rainbow Six: Quarantine, Gods and Monsters, and there have been reports that Ubisoft is working on a new Assassin’s Creed game supposedly based on Vikings. That’s four games that could fit neatly into Ubisoft’s AAA plans for the year. And there are also projects like Skull and Bones that have been delayed indefinitely which could complete the release calendar.
