Ubisoft promises Ghost Recon news in August, and if you’re hoping that means an update on the Splinter Cell remake then I admire your optimism but sorry, no

Ubisoft has announced plans to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Ghost Recon series this August, with further details expected on August 6th. The last installment of the franchise was released seven years ago. The company is facing challenges, including recent layoffs at Xbox, and fans are also hoping for news regarding the Splinter Cell franchise. The 20th anniversary of the original Splinter Cell game was celebrated in 2022, but there has been uncertainty about its future, including a shelved movie featuring Tom Hardy. Ubisoft has acknowledged a "quieter year" ahead, with significant releases not expected until 2027-28. The 25th anniversary of the first Splinter Cell game is set for November 18, 2027.

Ubisoft promises new Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Ghost Recon games are coming, but says this year will be ‘quieter’ than most

Ubisoft's recent financial report indicates that while new titles are planned, including Black Flag Resynced, the upcoming fiscal year will have a "lighter new release slate." CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed that new entries in the Assassin's Creed and Far Cry series are in development, but release timelines remain uncertain. The company has faced delays and cancellations, exemplified by Beyond Good and Evil 2. Ubisoft has experienced layoffs, studio closures, and restructuring efforts, which have not resolved ongoing issues.

Star Citizen reaches $1 billion in lifetime funding, 14 years after the project was first announced — game still in early access with no release window, including ‘Squadron 42’ campaign

Star Citizen was launched as a crowdfunding campaign on October 10, 2012, and has since surpassed billion in total funding, though a definitive release date is not yet available. The game is currently in an alpha state, with ongoing updates and numerous bugs. Over 1,000 employees are involved in its development, which has spanned three console generations. Chris Roberts has suggested a potential release window of 2027-2028, depending on the launch of Squadron 42, which is targeting a release in 2026. The game has transitioned from CryEngine to a proprietary engine, StarEngine, and features like Persistent Entity Streaming and Server Meshing have been introduced. Star Citizen is the most expensive crowdfunded game ever, and it has been covered by Tom's Hardware since late 2012.
