According tothe EscapistUbisoft will be showing two demos of their upcoming gameAssassin’s Creed: Unityat E3. One demo will focus on the single-player game, while another seperate demo will show offUnity‘s new four-player co-op mode.
Will this be the new gameplay twist the franchise needs to stay fresh? Most of the praise forAssasin’s Creed 4centered around the ship battles, with many not liking the rest of the game for basically being the same oldAssassin’s Creedthat we saw many, many times over the course of the previous generation of consoles.
WithAssassin’s Creed: Unitybeing developed exclusively for Xbox One and PS4, hopefully this will be one of many features that make it a title you can’t possibly experience on last-gen consoles and make us feel like this generation of consoles has truly arrived.
That being said, I’ve recently mademy feelings known on how multiplayer and single-player games normally shouldn’t mix. I really feel, especially with a huge mainstream AAA franchise likeAssassin’s Creed,that this is an attempt by Ubisoft to make the game all things to all people — and that rarely works out well. I hope I’m proven wrong, but I’m highly skeptical thatUnitycan have balanced single-player and multiplayer components.
