Ubisoft Forward 2024: All The Biggest Announcements

We’re deep into the season of summer gaming showcases, and up next to bat is Ubisoft. In the latter half of 2024, Ubisoft has some big games coming out soon, and its Ubisoft Forward showcase will see more details about these titles revealed. We’ll be covering the livestream, so you can periodically refresh this page for updates on all the new announcements from Ubisoft.

The games that we do know will make an appearance include Star Wars Outlaws and Assassin’s Creed Shadows, two open-world experiences to look forward to.

We already got an early look at Assassin’s Creed Shadows in action during the Xbox Games Showcase, and with this livestream, we’re hoping to see more of the game’s systems shown off before we dive into an animus for a tour of feudal Japan. Star Wars Outlaws is still scheduled to launch on August 30, and while we’ve seen plenty of gameplay for this sci-fi adventure, more Star Wars is never a bad thing.

Ubisoft also has several live-service games, so we’re expecting to see what’s next for titles like Skull and Bones, Rainbow Six Siege, XDefiant, and For Honor. After getting two fun Prince of Persia games this year, we’re not betting on the Sands of Time remake to make an appearance, but it would be nice to get an update on it! Then there are other games in development, like the Splinter Cell remake and The Division 3, and other rumored titles like a new Far Cry.

Star Wars Outlaws

Ubisoft Forward kicked off with a fresh look at Star Wars Outlaws, and how the game’s protagonist can improve her skills by hunting down experts to teach her new tricks. Beyond that, the gameplay video also showed off some outer space dogfights, as Kay’s ship the Trailblazer took on several Junkros fighters in an intense battle above Tattooine, and more details on managing your reputation amongst the major forces of the underworld.

XDefiant

Big updates are on the way for XDefiant when it starts its first season in July. Players can expect a steady supply of maps, weapons, a new Capture the Flag mode, and a new faction in the form of GSK from Team Rainbow when the new season drops on July 2.

Skull and Bones

Skull and Bones will get some big content updates when players set sail in the game’s upcoming seasons. New threats like the Hubac Twins and a colossal megalodon shark will test the seaworthiness of players, but they’ll be able to upgrade their vessels, try out new fleet management tools, and further expand their pirate empire through seasons 2 and 3 of the game.

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

This year marks the 35th anniversary of the Prince of Persia franchise, and Ubisoft had several big announcements to make. First up was Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, which will receive new Divine Trials, combat challenges, puzzles challenges, and more outfits to collect. In September, the game will also receive its first expansion, Mask of Darkness.

The Rogue Prince of Persia

Currently in early access on PC, The Rogue Prince of Persia, the upcoming –and free–Temple of Fire update for the game will add some substantial content. There’ll be a new biome to explore, more weapons added to the Prince’s arsenal, and new enemies to test them out on.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake

Ubisoft’s long-in-development remake of The Sands of Time is going to be out anytime soon, but Ubisoft has penciled in a 2026 release date for the game.

When a mysterious shadow looms in the sky and threatens the Na’vi clans below, it’ll be up to you to face off against the RDA and protect the unity of the clans in Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora first Story Pack. The Sky Breaker will be available starting July 16.

The Crew Motorfest

Shifting from Pandora to the streets, a new era of racing is set to begin In The Crew Motorfest. Year 2 will begin in November 2024 and will feature a new island to explore, new vehicles to collect, new Playlists to try out, and much more.

Anno 117: Pax Romana

Friends, Romans, countrymen! Lend us your ears! A new trailer for Anno 117 teased how you’ll answer the call to become a Roman governor and guide the citizens of Rome to prosperity. You’ll need to build, forge trading alliances, and carp that diem if you want the Albion and Latium provinces to prosper.
