The Ubisoft Forward aired today. Missed it? Time for a summary!
First up: Mario + Rabbids Sparks of hope (Release date: 20th of October.)
It’s a turn-based combat game in combination with open-world exploration. We’ve seen one of the first quests of the game where you’re going head-to-head with one of the bosses with some interesting mechanics. Use your party’s unique characteristics and skills to discover hidden paths or even secrets along the way. Each boss will have unique strengths and weaknesses that will give you an advantage over the enemy. Use multiple sparks to gain control over the battlefield, gain elemental buffs, and many other things. Tactical advantage and synergy between your party members and sparks are crucial to victory. You will also be able to traverse the battlefield quicker due to jumping pads and tunnels. There will be 3 DLCs after launch through a season pass with a new playable character: Rayman.

Skull and Bones
Sale the seas alone or with your friends. Smuggle valuable items to the highest bidder and take all the risks with them. Go on treasure hunts to find hidden stashes. Participants have a lot of positive things to say about the playtests of Skulls and Bones. The most important thing to mention is the fact that the developers have listened to all of their feedback. Skull and Bones will allow you to build the ultimate ship in three phases. Choose your weapons and ammunition, choose your armor and personalize the look. Some of these decisions will either break your ship or let it soar to the highest peak. There will be optional PVP and crossplay will be available at launch.
