Ubisoft Announces New Tom Clancy Title, Trials Fusion and The Crew

Ubisoft showcased footage for upcoming games Watch Dogs, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag and Rayman Legends.  However, some new titles were also revealed.

First up is a new Tom Clancy game called The Division, a third-person tactical shooter where you fight for America’s future.  A plague has ravaged the world as we know it, with factions struggling to take whatever they can.  You’re part of an elite force battling to save what’s left, using military techniques and high-tech weapons.  The game will feature online connectivity and the ability to track enemies using high-tech gizmos.  It’s slated for release in 2014.

Next up is a new racing game from the makers of Driver: San Francisco called The Crew.  In it, you’ll team with three fellow racers online and battle as a unit, with each person controlling different vehicles as you attempt to overtake enemies and rival squads.  Featuring a unique blend of strategy and racing, The Crew looks promising. 

Finally, RedLynx will take its tough-as-nails racing series Trials to the next level.  It’s producing two games – the first a next-gen gravity-defying release called Trials Fusion, and the second a mobile entry called Trials Frontiers.  Both games will feature multiplayer connectivity as well as challenging new tracks that will certainly keep you busy.  Both titles are due for release next year.

Look for more info – and first looks – on these games soon.
