The Tweet has now been deleted, but we saved a screenshot of it:
At this points, there seems to be little doubt that the game is real. Everyone act real surprised when it’s unveiled at E3, alright?

Speaking with the site, Ubisoft’s Courtney Riss spoke about wanting to take advantage of the spiral design, which signifies original creation – along the lines of the Big Bang. However, it needed to be modernized so that it would be more direct and simple.
This is the third time in Ubisoft’s history that the company is changing its logo with four designs overall. Here’s a look at past designs:
