Ubisoft’s E3 2019 Press Conference has come to a close, and we’ve learned quite a lot about the future projects of the famous publisher. In addition to unveiling their plans for “Ghost Recon Breakpoint” and “The Division 2”, the publisher also released footage of the next “Watch Dogs” game, as well as their new IP “Gods and Monsters”. Ubisoft didn’t just talk about their brand new AAA titles, they also talked about upcoming updates for Rainbow Six Siege and For Honor. Additionally, Ubisoft also unveiled a new mobile game called “Tom Clancy’s Elite Squad”, which is a stylized mash-up tactical game that features various heroes from Ubisoft’s Tom Clancy games. So without further ado, here are the biggest announcements from Ubisoft’s E3 2019 press conference:

“Watch Dogs Legion” Makes Its Debut

Fans of the previous “Watch Dogs” games finally got their first look at the next installment in the series. “Watch Dogs Legion” is set in London post-Brexit and is a bit of shift compared to the previous games in the series. The game moves away from the solo protagonist of the earlier games and now allows you to recruit and play as nearly every citizen in the city.

“Watch Dogs Legion” releases on March 20, 2020.

“Rainbow Six Quarantine”, PvE Siege Spin-Off, Unveiled

“Rainbow Six Siege” continues to be one of Ubisoft’s most successful games. In the years since its release, new operators and game modes have joined the fray, switching things up in the game. While Ubisoft revealed that there would be some new content for “Rainbow Six Siege”, the biggest announcement for the Rainbow Six Franchise was the reveal of “Rainbow Six Quarantine”. The game, which is a PvE Spin-Off of Siege, is a 3-player tactical co-op game where players fight against infected monsters and humans. “Rainbow Six Quarantine” is based on the limited time Quarantine event for Siege, and now it is a standalone game.

“Rainbow Six Quarantine” comes out in early 2020

Following the release of “The Division 2” last March, developers revealed upcoming plans for the online tactical shooter RPG.

In Episode 2, players will venture to the Pentagon to fight against a new threat, and in Episode 3, players will return to Manhattan – the setting of the “The Division”. Additionally, “The Division 2” will be free-to-play from June 13-16 2019 and will be on sale until June 24. A live-action “The Division” movie will also be released on Netflix soon.
