SG ESPECIAL | UBISOFT FORWARD en directo
Episode notes
A live special devoted to Ubisoft Forward. The programme opens with expectations for Ubisoft and Assassin’s Creed, calling for open worlds with more purpose, better stories, and fewer repetitive activities. It then takes an in-depth look at Star Wars Outlaws: exploration of Tatooine and space, the speedster, stealth, combat, tools, and a reputation system tied to decisions and factions. It also covers XDefiant, Skull & Bones, Prince of Persia updates, Rocksmith+, additional content for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, and The Crew Motorfest expansion.
The central section focuses on Assassin’s Creed Shadows. They discuss its Japanese setting, seasonal changes, environmental interaction, and its protagonists’ two styles: direct combat with the samurai and stealth with the ninja. They detail mechanics such as extinguishing lights, the grappling hook, aerial assassinations, diving, and firearms, while assessing combat, progression, and the potential importance of the story. To close, they evaluate the event: they highlight the gameplay shown and choose Star Wars Outlaws as their favourite, while noting the lack of major surprises.
