Ubisoft lets players learn how to kick ass in the new Xbox One Fighter Within game. Check out this demo with the new Kinect.
Insider Gaming - "Ubisoft has cancelled yet another game, this time ending development on the Animal Crossing-inspired title Alterra."
HALIFAX (April 14, 2026) – Laid-off Ubisoft workers in Halifax have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a settlement with the video-game giant. The terms of the settlement, including the compensation employees will receive, is confidential.
I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.
Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.
But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.
Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.
Fighter Within has been quiet thus far, it wasn't at Microsoft's events.
Meh
looks good, something for the kids to do to let of a bit of steam..
Not to beat around the bush, but this looks shockingly bad. I'm sorry, but using the Kinect for a fighting game is just.... no. All that will happen is both players frantically flailing their arms, doing the same straight punch combo, with questionable accuracy. The whole thing just looks far more cumbersome and unnecessarily awkward as opposed to just using the Xbox One controller.
I GUESS it has some novelty value, and will probably serve as the party game - but the Kinect novelty wears off VERY quick. Especially in, what looks to be, a bare bones fighting game with no real complex technique or any kind of strategy. I just don't see this doing well, at all.
