Three sources have confirmed that Ubisoft is working on a new third-person shooter dubbed 'Pathfinder', which could be a codename for the project.
Images and videos of the game, that have been provided with the request of anonymity show a similar graphical design to the soon-to-be shutdown Hyper Scape developed by Ubisoft Montreal. The game, however, does appear to be a little more cartoony in nature.
Pathfinder appears to be a slightly different take on a Battle Royale, where a team of four players will drop into the map and find their path towards the center to fight the main AI boss. Players need to navigate their way through two walls (an outer wall and an inner wall) that have a series of gates around them that can be breachable. The catch? Different gates are breachable or locked every single game, making each game different in terms of the path you need to navigate.
In order to get to the middle of the map, players will need to fight AI enemies to level up and get stronger, with AI getting noticeably more difficult the further toward the middle of the map you get. Presumably, the game will be PvPvE, as you'll be dropping into the map with other players, so the AI will not be your only threat.
