Ubisoft Again he tries his strength in the genre of “Royal Battle”, and this time the company draws inspiration from one of the market leaders – Apex Legends . According to data Tom Henderson (TOM HENDERSON) from Insider Gaming, a new project under the code name Scout has been in development for about two years and includes elements of heroic shooters with characters very reminiscent of Title fighters Respawn.
Sources report that the game is casinowinstler.net so close to the original that in the early stages she even used the image Apex Legends As a plug for cover. Interlocutors Henderson saw in Scout characters “very similar” on such iconic legends “Areh” as a patio, Rapie and Lipline.
Ubisoft, It seems that not to occupy ambitions – the company thinks to intercept the audience against the backdrop of a decrease in online in Apex Legends: "I think the goal is to take advantage of the decline in the number of players APEX and the fact that [the highest leadership Ubisoft] believes: a place for another heroic “royal battle” appeared on the market ”, – shared the source of the eminent journalist.
At the same time Henderson notes: such a step contradicts internal research Ubisoft, In which the future of the Battle Royale genre is called into question. Company analysts are already wondering “what will happen after?".
Although the details of the gameplay are not yet disclosed, the project can already cause skepticism, given the past company failure in the genre: in 2020 Ubisoft I released Hyper Scape, which could not hold the audience and was closed after a year and a half later. Since then, according to rumors, the French canceled near a dozen similar projects at different stages of development.
