Ubisoft Will No Longer Focus Purely on AAA Titles, Ramping Up Free-to-Play Games This Year
Ubisoft has revealed they?re moving away from their previous reliance on AAA titles. In their latest earnings call, the company revealed they won?t be abandoning AAA games completely but will instead increase the number of ?other premium experiences? and free-to-play titles to go alongside them.
Fiscal year 22 will be the year the publisher takes the first step towards ?ramping up? their free to play output. They?ll also begin focusing on the mobile market, aiming for AAA quality on mobile. Ubisoft wants to see their brands as AAA titles and on mobile platforms, a model they?re adopting with the upcoming Roller Champions. The first title created with Tencent, rumored to be an Assassin?s Creed mobile title, will also see a soft launch towards the end of the period. As CFO Frederick Duguet explains:
