Beyond Good and Evil 2 gets surprising update via Ubisoft job listing

26 novembre 2025 à 15:45

We are approaching a decade since Ubisoft re-revealed Beyond Good and Evil 2. Unfortunately, since then there have been absolutely no official updates and in 2025, the game appears to be no closer to release. Fans may have some room for optimism, however, as new job listings show that development is continuing.

Ubisoft Montpellier is now hiring for a technical sound designer, with the job description specifying that the role is for the Beyond Good and Evil 2 project. Better yet, the job listing actually gives us a bit of a description on what the game will actually be:

“Beyond Good & Evil 2 is an action-adventure open world game set in a captivating space opera universe and the direct prequel to the 2003 cult classic. Based on a breakthrough technology driven by the proprietary Voyager engine, Beyond Good & Evil 2 aims to offer a seamless experience of exploration and space piracy across a solar system full of exotic locations, colorful characters and mysteries to uncover, solo or with friends. So, if you are ready for an adventure like no other, come join forces with us to build System 3!”

The person who lands the sound designer role will be responsible for creating audio assets and integrating audio designs into the game using a mix of middleware and the game's proprietary engine. It is entirely possible that this proprietary engine is part of the reason that the project has taken so long. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Halo Infinite also ran into many delays due to the need to develop engine technology alongside the games themselves.

Ubisoft has not provided an official update on Beyond Good and Evil 2 for years and the last time we saw the game was way back in 2017. Fortunately, it does sound like the creative team now has a concrete idea in place and is moving towards production, which means the final game could be just a few more years away. Typically, a technical sound designer would join a project during the production phase, so the wheels are definitely turning after years of apparent stagnation.

KitGuru Says: Beyond Good and Evil first released way back in 2003 and fans have been asking for a sequel ever since. It is still unclear when the game will resurface, but this latest update is promising.

Long-awaited Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake to release soon

26 novembre 2025 à 10:45

Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake has had an unfortunate development. First announced in late 2020 alongside a January 2021 launch date, reactions to the announcement trailer were far from positive, leading the publisher to delay the title. Since then, the Sands of Time remake has been delayed, delayed again, switched developers, delayed, rebooted, and then finally re-revealed in 2024 (with a couple more delays sprinkled in). The journey may finally be over soon however, with the long-awaited Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake said to be launching as soon as this January.

As reported by known leakers Insider-Gaming, Ubisoft has penned a release window for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake in mid-January of 2026.

Interestingly, we have yet to see anything from the game ever since its initial (now redundant) trailer – with the The Sands of Time Remake’s re-reveal offering little more than a cinematic logo unveiling alongside the vague release year of 2026.

Sands of Time January

That said, the publisher did recently comment on the project, stating back in June that “we’re still deep in the game — exploring, building, and ensuring the sands move with purpose. This game is being crafted by a team that truly cares, and they're pouring their hearts (and a lot of coffee) into every step. Thank you for sticking with us.”

Additionally, Ubisoft revealed during their Fiscal Earnings report back in May that The Sands of Time Remake is planned to arrive during the Fiscal Year 2025-26 (April 2025 – March 2026), lending further credence to this newly-reported release window.

Given the overwhelming reaction to their first attempt at a Sands of Time remake, it will be interesting to see how this rebooted project winds up looking like. Hopefully we will get our first proper taste of the title during the upcoming 2025 Game Awards.

KitGuru says: Are you looking forward to the Sands of Time remake? What did you think of their first attempt? Can this remake live up to expectations? Let us know down below.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows x Attack on Titan officially announced

25 novembre 2025 à 12:00

When you think of video game crossovers, one series which does not come to people’s mind is Assassin’s Creed. Despite this, the Ubisoft-published franchise has collaborated with a number of interesting franchises in the past. That said, in a highly unexpected announcement, the latest Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set to crossover with none other than the popular anime series Attack on Titan.

Making the surprise announcement, the team at Ubisoft officially unveiled their upcoming collab – Assassin’s Creed Shadows x Attack on Titan. Set to go live on the 25th of November (today), this limited-time crossover will be available until the 15th of December and will include a new free quest to complete.

As expected however, if you wanted to get your hands on the Mikasa-themed cosmetic skin for Naoe, you’ll have to pay up (though no price has been provided so far).

As mentioned, this isn’t the first time that Assassin’s Creed has crossed over with another franchise, with the likes of AC Origins offering a Final Fantasy collab back in 2018 and Shadows itself having already crossed over with Dead by Daylight earlier this year.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is an important title for Ubisoft, with the game said to have been a bit of a make or break moment for the publisher prior to its release. Whether an Attack on Titan crossover will make a major difference in this regard, we will have to wait and see, but it is welcome at the very least to see the quest itself being included for free.

KitGuru says: What do you think of this crossover? Would you prefer some more thematically-appropriate collabs? Let us know down below.

Live-action Far Cry TV show adaptation officially announced

25 novembre 2025 à 11:00

In the lead up to each new Far Cry title, Ubisoft have released a short film or two to give fans a taste of what to expect from the next entry in this now-iconic series. That said, in a surprise announcement (though it was leaked a while back), a full proper Far Cry TV show has now been greenlit – with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia creator Rob Mac set to star in the project.

As reported by the publication Variety, distribution company FX has now greenlit a series adaptation of Ubisoft’s Far Cry video game series. While details remain light at the moment, the show is seemingly set to comprise multiple seasons and will “follow an anthology format like the games and feature a different cast and setting each season.”

Speaking of the cast, Rob Mac (formerly McElhenney) is set to serve as co-creator, executive producer and will star in the show – though his role has not yet been confirmed.

Far Cry

Given the fact that the show will consist of multiple Seasons in an anthology-like format, it will be interesting to see whether the series will directly adapt each game’s story/narrative, or whether it’ll simply be used more for inspiration.

Additionally, Rob Mac as an actor is known best for his comedic roles, and so the shift to what will likely be a more serious tone is worthy of note. Speaking on the project, Mac stated: “Ubisoft has been remarkably generous, entrusting us with one of the most iconic video-game worlds ever created. And through it all, my FX family continues to lift me up with their constant belief and support.”

Full comments from Rob Mac; co-creator Noah Hawley; FX and more can be found HERE.

Long-rumoured Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake reportedly launching in March

24 novembre 2025 à 12:00

Back in early 2024, a rumour first popped up claiming that Ubisoft had greenlit the development of an Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake. Since then, we’ve heard various bits and bobs surrounding the project – including the extent to which they plan to alter the game’s overall formula. Though still yet to be officially announced, insiders have claimed that AC’s Black Flag Remake is slated to arrive in just a few months.

As reported by known industry leakers Insider-Gaming, the long-rumoured yet-still-unannounced Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake could be arriving in just a few months time – more specifically before the end of March 2026.

This follows on from comments by Ubisoft themselves who recently revealed that they have an unannounced project scheduled to arrive before the end of the fiscal year (aka. the 31st of March 2026).

Going into slightly more depth, the leakers stated that this Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Remake is “scheduled to release the week of March 23rd” (most likely on Tuesday or Friday).

Black Flag Remake

As mentioned, this is far from the first time we’ve heard of a Black Flag remake, with previous reports claiming that quite a few changes are being made, including but not limited to:

  • Removing all of the modern day elements from the game
  • Edward having his own loot and gear stats
  • Combat being less ‘choreographed’ than the original
  • A more dense map with fewer loading screens

Of course, we will have to wait for an official announcement before jumping to conclusions. That said, given how close the remake seemingly is to its release, we might finally get an unveiling during this year’s Game Awards.

KitGuru says: Are you looking forward to the Black Flag remake? Can it live up to the original? What are your thoughts on the leaked details so far? Let us know down below.

Former Ubisoft studio lead confirms Splinter Cell project was cancelled in 2017

16 novembre 2025 à 13:00

Back around 2018, an E3 leak claimed that Ubisoft was planning on announcing a new Splinter Cell game. That turned out to be entirely false, but the publisher was indeed working on a revival of the stealth-action franchise at one point, although it was quickly cancelled in a pivot towards ‘live service' games.

This week, Bloomberg's Jason Schreier published a new interview with AdHoc Studios co-founder, Nick Herman, covering his journey from Ubisoft to founding his new studio and releasing the new hit-game Dispatch. In this interview, Herman reveals that around 2017, when he took on a role at Ubisoft's San Francisco studio, he and a small team had worked on a new Splinter Cell game for several months:

Herman had the following to say about his time working on Splinter Cell:

“I was so excited to be a part of this and help revitalize it, because it’s been dormant for a while, and we thought we could tell a great story and do something the fans would love”.

However, it is claimed that the game was cancelled very early on, as Ubisoft had begun asking its studios to focus on ‘Games as a service', otherwise known as live-service games. The group struggled to come up with an idea that would stick and ultimately, Herman left Ubisoft to start up AdHoc Studios, which just released its first hit game, Dispatch, which prominently features Breaking Bad co-star, Aaron Paul in a lead acting role.

Eventually, Ubisoft San Francisco hired a new leader, Mark Rubin, and began working on XDefiant. While the game garnered some hype during its beta testing phase, players had issues with the title at launch and ultimately, Ubisoft shut the game down and closed the San Francisco studio.

While some have taken this interview to mean that Splinter Cell was cancelled specifically for XDefiant, that was not the case. The Splinter Cell project had a short-lived life in 2017 and was cancelled to focus on live-service multiplayer games. However, XDefiant didn't come to be until after 2019, at least two years after the short-lived Splinter Cell project.

Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.

KitGuru Says: There is a serious lack of stealth-action games on the current market. Ubisoft has the perfect IP to fill that gap. Hopefully at some point in the next couple of years, it capitalises on that opportunity.

STAR WARS OUTLAWS – Test Nintendo Switch 2

9 septembre 2025 à 08:13

Le jeu Star Wars Outlaws est disponible sur toutes les plateformes un an déjà… Cependant la sortie de la Nintendo Switch 2 a tout chamboulé et Ubisoft nous propose une nouvelle édition de son jeu avec un excellent portage sur la console de Nintendo. Nous avons eu l’opportunité de tester cette version hybride et l’expérience est concluante. 

Un très bon portage

La Gamescom à Cologne a eu lieu il y’a quelques semaines et nous avons eu quelques retours sur les prochains jeux tiers sur Nintendo Switch 2. Final Fantasy 7 tourne très bien sur la console mais Elden Ring est assez décevant selon certaines sources. A ce moment, j’ai eu quelques doutes et inquiétudes concernant le portage de Star Wars Outlaws sur Switch 2. C’est avec grande surprise que nous avons reçu le jeu et j’ai été très satisfait de l’expérience proposée sur cette nouvelle console. 

Star Wars Outlaws version Nintendo Switch 2 tourne très bien en mode docker et en mode portable. Côté graphisme, le jeu tourne avec un 30 FPS constant et une résolution en FULL HD. Personnellement j’ai joué sur une TV 4K et le jeu ne bronche pas. Petit aspect négatif, certaines textures peuvent être assez floues et la Nintendo Switch 2 a du mal à gérer certains effets de particules lorsque l’environnement est trop riche. Le mode nomade est un vrai plus pour ce jeu car il permet d’en profiter dans de très bonnes conditions ou vous le souhaitez.

Star Wars Outlaws est un très bon AAA en open-world et si vous ne l’avez jamais encore fait, je vous le recommande. Dans ce jeu, vous incarnez Kay vess, une criminelle prête à tout pour obtenir ce qu’elle désire. Vous serez accompagné de Nyx, une créature très mignonne qui vous sera utile lors des phases d’infiltration et d’exploration. Comme tout bon criminel dans l’univers de Star Wars, vous allez devoir créer des relations avec certaines tribus mais aussi les trahir pour obtenir des avantages avec d’autres. Le jeu propose beaucoup de phases d’infiltration mais l’utilisation de votre blaster est votre meilleur atout. Star Wars Outlaws propose aussi de l’exploration de planètes avec des quêtes annexes scénarisées. 

Les phases de combats sont très chouettes même sur Nintendo Switch 2 et je n’ai souffert d’aucun ralentissement. L’exploration avec le speeder ce fait très bien grâce à l’ajout d’un flou de mouvement qui permet d’avoir le maximum de performance manette en main. Le jeu dispose des dialogues FR mais aussi l’overlay d’Ubisoft Connect pour obtenir des récompenses en jeu. Si je devais comparer la version PS5 et Nintendo Switch 2, je dirais que la version PS5 propose moins de floues et plus de vie dans les villes mais cette nouvelle version s’en rapproche de très près. 

Star Wars Outlaws est un excellent portage pour les joueurs Nintendo qui peuvent aujourd’hui découvrir un jeu très sympa. Ubisoft a fait quelques compromis côté graphisme pour permettre d’avoir une expérience stable. C’est un plaisir de pouvoir jouer à ce jeu en nomade et de retrouver nos 2 héros favoris Kay Vess et Nyx.  Si vous ne l’avez jamais fait et que vous êtes fans de l’univers Star Wars, ce jeu est fait pour vous !
