The best comments

I correctly understood that the PC overtook the Xbox revenue by 7%? If yes, then to aphage, and they also say that the PC market dies.

Usually such news does not end in anything good. But Skull & Bones looked pretty interesting when it was shown, but so much time has passed that it seems to me that interest is already falling and just a shut-up mode from the assassin can no longer do, you need to introduce some extent a highlight. But I hope everything will turn out well.

“The release of the Pirate action of the Skull & Bones has been postponed again-now the game should be released in the next financial year, that is, not earlier than April 2020.»If only I would read the news ..

Nine years old they already scored on the prince, and then they will suddenly return? Hello, assassins have long absorbed the franchise Pop.

And before Odyssey AS, after all, was not a game about the towers and all that you described =)
From the fact that they added 2 times more than this drochev, she did not become impassable without him. It is quite easy to skip all the sides, acromy of exclamations and epic animals, as well as mythical creatures. It’s just interesting.

Apparently Skull & Bones will be released on a new generation of consoles. And this is, in principle, not bad, it can turn out a very worthy project on a pirate theme.

MB in Skull & Bones will twist the graphics for modern standards? She seemed to be on the engine of old assassins.

This moment is interesting to me. How? 62 percent is a solid figure, no one knows where so much?

“Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey set a record for playing players – apparently this means that no other part of the series has kept the attention of users for so long."

Duc because you will not be able to advance on the plot if you do not suck off all these sides and outposts in order to match the level.They made not a cool game in terms of the player’s involvement, they made a noble drill.

“The company expects that in 10 years the number of gamers will reach 5 billion."

Of course, I understand, we must impress investors and all that, but even if you take into account that the turn of 10 years will reach a mark of 10 billion, something I doubt that the half of the world will be “playing”.If we consider everyone who played at least once in his life in Tetris or Mario, mobile casuals with farms, browser, and players of the “one game”, yes, it may be so much, although even here it is doubtful, but to consider all 5 billion with full -fledged gamers and their tsa is somehow stupid.

And it is also interesting, if the base of up to several billion grows in the future, the companies will also shove the lootboxes, saw everything on DLS, sell an intra -game gear, and it is difficult to make games, and you don’t appreciate us, or due to the increased number of PP, they will still take the full cost once and that’s all on this?

• Sales in the Uplay service have grown 10 times.
• The company’s income compared to last year increased by 17 %, and operating profit by 49 %.

The last 4 main assassin came out in the fall, I do not see the foundations for the transfer of a new assassin about the Vikings. And WD3 seems to be released this year just in the fall. The Prince of Persian or New Rayman would be more logical, well, we don’t forget about the pirates.
So my choice is Splinter Cell + Prince of Persia + Skull and Bones screens.
