Ubisoft’s latest financial results are in, but there is one particular excerpt from the report that is of significant interest.

The publisher’s lineup up through April 2014 includes five titles. Ubisoft cited three games: Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, and Watch Dogs. The company also teased “two titles that have not yet been announced, including one new creation.”

That “new creation” term is likely alluding to a new IP of some kind. The other is probably based on an existing franchise.

The latest fiscal year ends on March 31. Both of these unannounced titles should be out by then.


The “Hoverboard” and “Toilet Paper Launcher” are duking it out in the Disney Infinity “Gadgetorium”:


New Monster Hunter 4 details have finally emerged from Famitsu. Here’s a roundup of information included in the magazine:

– Frozen Sea: blizzards are common
– Made up of ice floating above the sea
– Beautiful displays of aurora borealis
– White rabbit-like beasts known as the Lagombi live in the area’s northern districts
– These creatures will attack hunters with snowballs
– Hunters assailed by snowballs will turn into snowmen
– New monster Skuagil (Sukuagiru)
– Pounces from the Frozen Sea’s waters
– Skuagil attacks and skewers hunters with its sharp head
– Skuagil gain nourishment from hunting their prey, causing their bodies to swell up to several times their usual size
– Another new monster: Arselnus
– Arselnus is a rhinoceros beetle-type creature that excels at flight
– Arselnus attacks in mid-air with its sharp horns
– It could be a troublesome opponent due to its acid spray, which has a corroding effect on hunters
