Ubisoft has finally realized that quality can save.
When Ubisoft said that this year there will be no new Assassin’s Creed, fans of the series calmed myself with the thought that if not in 2016, then in 2017 the game will still be released. And while it is possible to enjoy the film adaptation of “assassin’s Creed” and the re-release of Assassin’s Creed: The Ezio Collection.
Only here, according to the statement of one of the bosses of Ubisoft’s Tommy Francois (Tommy François), new Assassin’s Creed — as well as new Far Cry is not likely to be released next year.
The fact is that now developers focus on the quality of the final product. And in order to achieve excellent gameplay, studios need more time for testing. In particular, Ubisoft decided to allocate teams responsible for Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry, at least one year to test alpha-versions.
It is worth noting that under the “alpha” Francois does not imply a public demonstration, as it was recently For Honor, and internal tests that will allow studios to identify the main problems of the project, then the developers will have enough time to correct deficiencies, to make changes and really Polish the gameplay.
I assume, with examples of long-suffering Assassin’s Creed: Unity and the recent Tom Clancy’s The Division, Ubisoft management has finally realized that quality can not save, even if this will require a significant delay in the release.
