Honestly, this isn't looking too hot visuals-wise :/ I'd find it hard to believe this was a Ubisoft title without all the Ubisoft branding in that video...
Honestly I'm down if the game looks fun. Curious as to who's developing it.

How does the controller show it's Switch footage? Did Nintendo move their letters around all of a sudden?
I doubt this is one of Ubisoft's unannounced AAA titles they teased to investors. It's probably a lower-budget thing.
This is most likely a budget title aimed at the Rocket League crowd just like I thought.
Was anybody really expecting this to be a AAA game?

I used to watch female roller derby all the time when young, hope this is fun.
I'm very interested.

Not sure why people are saying that it doesn't look good. There is no gameplay footage.
I like the colors in the trailer.

Anybody could clearly tell that. You're not unique in that thinking.
So roller derby inspired. I'm still very on board. This is the sort of game that will live and die based on how it plays. If this sort of tease leaked ahead of Rocket League it would be equally unimpressive.
Graphics obviously aren't the best in the world, but gameplay is king for this kind of game, anyway. Excited to see how it plays.
I'm assuming this is pre-alpha footage. Ubisoft games aren't exactly the most beautiful games, but they certainly aren't ugly.
This seems like more of a budget title where their going for something more out their, which is always nice to see. If it's as fun as something like Rocket League, I think it can do really well
Guessing this is pre-alpha footage. Ubi doesn't make the most graphically impressive stuff but there games usually look more than acceptable. Wouldn't be surprised if it looks better whenever it's officially revealed.
I never have thought about a roller derby game before though. I'm interested in what they come up with.

Combining somewhat underwhelming visuals and that generic controller graphic, I'm going to assume it's a title for that Apple mobile gaming initiative (which I forget the name of already), perhaps crossing over into a Switch title like several other games (i.e. Sayonara Wild Hearts).
edit: or not, unless Apple uses the same triple-line and overlapping-rectangle icons that Android uses for options and recent apps.

The textures look pretty good, but the audience looks low-poly, and the backgrounds aren't great, either. I guess they're not meant to be seen in panning angles during actual gameplay, though.
you can't not have a leak when 500 people in 5 different studios in 3 different continents are working on a single game.
It would actually be interesting to me if it were.
That controller pic, however, makes it seem like it's definitely not.
I wonder if you can go the wrong direction. This game seems terribly boring if you're just going to be going in circles with your controller.
Yea the audience doesn't bother me since you won't really see them. The textures are very clean on the track. I'm actually surprised they went with a 3d audience anyways. We'll see how the characters look in actual gameplay soon enough I hope.
I feel a Nintendo-made rollerball game would have charming aesthitic though (for example, games like ARMS)
I am so down for this. Imagine if it had an SSX Tricky style character rivalry system for offline. ;__;
This looks like a december/january release from one or more of the "tier 2" Ubisoft studios.
Wonder if Ubi counts this as one of the "four AAA titles" to be released this FY.

I want to commit seppuku by this comment.
Look fine.with clean-cut art style like Overwatch.
Love the idea of a Roller Derby game, and visuals have never really been something I care too much about in games (and even then, I think this looks pretty good?) so I'm really interested in this.
I feel like this could possibly be a new IP from Red Lynx. If anyone would make a game like this for Ubisoft they're the first I feel would do it.
You're welcome. I'll have more ubisoft game news for you in the future, hopefully!!
Also, I gave some more asset file images to some news websites, such as NintendoSoup.
