Ubisoft has always supported new technology from the get go (Wii, Kinect, Wii U) and the publisher’s head of EMEA, Alain Corre, simply believes the creative possibilities that new VR technology affords would be too important to pass up. He talked about VR at length recently, in an interview with Gamesindustry.biz.
Another new technology that Ubisoft is excited to support is the Nintendo NX. Of course, Nintendo has yet to say anything at all about its new hardware while the rumor mill continues to present plenty of plausible possibilities, but Corre says that Ubisoft is gearing up for a slate of titles beyond Just Dance.
“We announced that we’re developing Just Dance for NX and we have other surprises that we will announce later, but we also believe Nintendo has the power to reinvent the way families are playing,” Corre tells me. “Nintendo is a fantastic powerhouse of brands that are really cherished by a lot of fans and families… I am still impressed by the reoccurrence of success and appetite even today for the Nintendo franchises on the current system.”
