Ubisoft aren’t exactly the most loved game publisher at the moment. As you may have heard, the release of the highly anticipated Assassins Creed: Unity was plagued with glitches, £90 microtransactions and poor performance across both PS4 and Xbox One.

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.
Well they did do a lot of beta testing, I'll give them that. As for the rest, we'll see come Tuesday
Well I don't have confidence in Ubisoft
I did however buy a Ubisoft title today, first time in a long time, Child Of Light, it's discounted to 50% on the PS Store, i've heard nothing but good things about it, I snapped it up

lol Ubisoft is crying wolf again

I had a play on the beta and found it a bit generic. Maybe I didn't give it a real chance. Did anyone else like it?
