Let's go Splinter Cell! Would be good to get a shock game for Switch like Rabbids again...

I'm just (re)starting Assassin's Creed Origins right this moment! Lost momentum early on during the semester. I feel like Ubi is going to have a good show, they're a really a reliably good (but not always great) publisher. Plus everyone else has been pretty shit this E3 anyway so.....

So, anybody else expecting/hoping for some specific news?

I'm personally curious if they'll mention/show anything for the Switch (besides M + R! DLC)

ooh, forgot about Watch Dogs. Never played the first but had a blast with the second. As long as they make a non-lethal playthrough possible I'll be in.

Edit* I guess it wouldn't matter if it was non-lethal if the story didn't make it that way. What I mean is that a lethal playthrough in the second game seemed strange and out of place.

This is possibly going to be the best conference so far.

- Divison 2 in DC
- Watch Dogs 3
- AC Odyssey
- Beyond Good and Evil 2

Plus more (Starlink, Skull and Bones, etc). This is all certainly more exciting then EA, Bethesda, SE presentations (MS was mostly 3rd party).

I definitely want Splinter Cell and I'm also curious about Watch Dogs 3. It'd be cool if it went near-future sci-fi.

I'm hoping for any of their "checklist" open world games to come to Switch, even a last-gen port would do. They're a guilty pleasure of mine and having them on the go would be amazing. Right now that niche is only really filled with Lego City Undercover, and that runs horribly in portable mode.

My only Ubisoft dream is a new Rayman game to complete the recent sidescrolling trilogy

Splinter Cell and AC make the conference for me, but if they announce a sequel to PoP 2008....
They won't.

Mario + Rabbids: Donkey Kong DLC Shadow Drop plz.

Other than that more footage of Beyond Good and Evil 2 is all I need, Splinter Cell or Rayman would be the cherry on top.
