育碧開始為《刺客 信條2》打廣告

《刺客 信條（Assassin's Creed）》有過不計其數的廣告宣傳，不難想像《刺客 信條2》也會走相同的路線。育碧美國分公司總裁Laurent Detoc日前在接受福布斯記者採訪時提到了《刺客 信條2》，並保證續作將比初代更加值得期待。

「我們剛剛完成《刺客 信條》並問鼎了世界最高水準。」Detoc對記者說道：「但我們必須馬上回到現實中來，因為成就只能代表你之前的努力……我們要保持一貫的水準，因此當我們決定要推出（《刺客 信條》的）續作的時候，將比現在更加值得大家期待。」

《刺客 信條》自去年年底發售以來，累計銷量已經超過了600萬套，不難想像育碧為了續作的推出勢必會不遺餘力。不過Detoc在採訪中也確認，《刺客 信條2》將不會在今年聖誕節推出，取而代之的是發生翻天覆地變化的新一代《波斯王子》。


Eurogamer：No Ass Creed 2 this year, confirms Ubi
http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=159252

Ubisoft has confirmed we won't see a sequel to Assassin's Creed this side of Christmas.

That's according to a Forbes interview with Ubi US boss Laurent Detoc, who said, "When we bring [Assassin's Creed] back, there will be more anticipation for it."

The decision is nothing to do with sales figures, as AC has proved highly popular. More than 6 million copies of the game have been shifted since it was released last November.

In the meantime there's always the new Prince of Persia, due for release this winter. Apparently Ubisoft is keen not to repeat what happened with the last POP trilogy. According to Forbes, 2 million copies of Sands of Time were sold in the game's first month on release, and while the two sequels sold well they failed to achieve the same success.

Hence the decision to pull back production on the next POP game. "As we get bigger, we can give it more breathing room," Detoc said.

育碧財報形式大好、《刺客 信條2》開發中
來源: www.levelup.cn 時間:2008-11-27 編輯:六段音速

育碧今天公佈的上半財年（截止到9月30日的六個月）財政報告中，確認了未來幾個財政季度內公司贏利計劃的一個重要環節：去年年底曾經大賣特賣的跨平台動作遊戲《刺客 信條（Assassin's Creed）》的續作。

儘管經濟危機正迫使許多美國遊戲廠商減少開發項目、大規模裁員甚至解散工作室，但從育碧的財政報告來看，公司的運轉形勢依舊良好。上半財年，育碧共實現營業收益2470萬歐元（約合3190萬美元），比去年同期增長了近一倍。

育碧首席執行官Yves Guillemot對公司年底聖誕銷售旺季的業績十分有信心，儘管今年北美各大零售商的訂貨相比以往都要謹慎了許多，但Guillemot對此並不擔心，他相信他們的產品很快就會被售出，零售商會立刻再追加定單。

會議上，當一位分析人士詢問育碧是否計劃在2010財年推出《刺客 信條》的續作時，Guillemot的態度顯得相當謹慎，不但拒絕回答甚至不願透露有關項目的隻言片語，但他最後還是確認續作目前正在開發之中。

「我們現在不會回答這個問題。」Guillemot在會上說道：「現階段我惟一可以確認的就是，我們目前正在全力以赴著手這款遊戲的開發。」



Ubisoft financials tease Assassin's Creed 2
By Brendan Sinclair, GameSpot Posted Nov 26, 2008 12:44 pm PT
In announcing first-half profits, French publisher plays coy with release window for next installment in acrobatic stealth action series.
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6201719...topstory;title

Ubisoft today reported profits for the first half of its fiscal year (the six months ended September 30), and acknowledged development on a key part of its profit plan in future quarters, the much-anticipated follow-up to Assassin's Creed.

While economic woes seem to be keeping other publishers down, Ubisoft has yet to feel the slowdown's effects. Following up on its second-quarter financial report, the publisher today cast a bit more light on its bottom line for the first half, posting operating income of €24.7 million ($31.9 million), nearly double that of the €12.5 million ($16.1 million) it raked in for the same stretch of the previous year.

While those numbers don't account for the last two months of volatility in the economy, Ubisoft executives were optimistic about their holiday sales outlook. In a question-and-answer session with analysts at the end of a conference call, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot and CFO Alain Martinez said that retailers are being cautious with their day-one orders, but it hasn't been a big issue as they're also quick to reorder when stock runs low. On top of that, they said all indications are that Ubisoft is on track to achieve its guidance for the year.

As for future years, one analyst asked if the second installment of Assassin's Creed would be released in Ubisoft's fiscal 2010. (The original was released to commercial success and mixed critical reception in 2007.) Guillemot flatly refused to give even a hint about the project, but did confirm it was in development.

"We're not answering that question," Guillemot said. "What we just can say is that we are working hard on the product."

Assassin's Creed 2 set during French Revolution?

What we heard: One of the highlights of Assassin's Creed was its medieval setting. After starting with a futuristic flourish, the well-reviewed and wildly popular platformer transported players to the Holy Land in the 12th century. As the hooded killer Altair, players leaped from rooftops in Jerusalem, strolled through souks in Damascus, and slit throats in Acre.



All of Assassin's Creed's locations were re-created via detailed graphics based on an all-new engine crafted at Ubisoft Montreal. Thanks to the aforementioned sci-fi twist, the game's recently revealed sequel could be set in virtually any time period, opening near-limitless possibilities for an all-new locale.

But while such places as ancient China and feudal Japan would seem likely suspects for Assassin's Creed 2's setting, a dark horse candidate appears to have merged. While taping an upcoming episode of Gametrailers' show Bonus Round, Giant Bomb co-founder (and ex-GameSpot editor) Ryan Davis chatted with fellow guest and analyst par excellence Michael Pachter.

During the course of the show, the Wedbush Morgan game-industry soothsayer said that Assassin's Creed would be set "several hundred years" after the original game "sometime in the 1700s." Not content with a timeframe, Pachter went on to "speculate that the French Revolution could be a potential setting." Said revolt, which began in 1789 with the storming of the Parisian fort-cum-prison the Bastille, was amongst the bloodiest changes of government in history. During the subsequent Great Terror, led by proto-Stalinist strongman Maximilien Robespierre, thousands of nobles and political opponents were sent to the guillotine en masse. Eventually, the ranks of the beheaded included Robespierre himself, who got the chop in 1794.



The official story: When asked to elaborate, Pachter politely declined to comment. Ubisoft had not responded to requests for comment as of press time.

Bogus or not bogus?: Too little to go on. With so much bloodletting and urban chaos, the French Revolution would be an interesting setting for Assassin's Creed 2. The subject is also close to Ubisoft's collective heart, given that the cash-flush francophonic publisher is itself based in Paris.

That said, keep in mind that even by Davis' account, Pachter was "speculating" about a "potential setting." Also, the breeches-and-powdered-wig era would likely be much less appealing to 21set century gamers than the original's medieval environs.

[NEWS]《ASSASSIN CREED 2》轉戰新舞台 2008-12-18 16:12
筆者 : GAMEWAVE編輯部
http://www.crossmedia.com.hk/gn/20081218/9879/

《ASSASSIN CREED》的結局中，返回現代的主角在研究所看到的神秘信息，這明顯地暗示了這不會是遊戲的最終結局。可惜官方這一年來完全沒有任何有關續作的信息公佈，令FANS十分失望。

最近，UBiSOFT的首席執行官GUILLEMOT在接受訪問時，確認《ASSASSIN CREED 2》的開發如箭在弦，並表示本作是來年公司的重點遊戲之一，將會投放更多的資源開發，來延續第一代的優異成績。另一邊廂，有本作的製作人員向傳媒透露，本作的故事背景會由十字軍時代移至18世紀的法國大革命為舞台，場景比上一代更加壯大。反正《ASSASSIN CREED》是以主角祖先的視點進行，刺客如果要轉戰新舞台，也並非沒可能的事。

當然，有官方站出來正式証實之前，一切都是傳聞而已。

第2集都會支持下
第1集玩完留低一d o哂咀既野係度
又唔知乜頭乜路

第2集希望玩法真係可以多元性
(雖然第1集重覆得黎都算enjoy既......)

我都係好鍾意玩.... d friend 問我玩乜的,

我都係話好玩, 不過好重覆咁做幾件事, 呢兩句好似有d 矛盾, 不過Mario 都係咁啦
但係第二集冇新野就要考慮, 因為第一代的畫面震撼第二代應該比唔到我...

[hkzerocool]

第一代最不滿係任務黎黎去去偷野、偷聽、刺殺、主線殺一件 x loop。。。
故事無錯係一流、畫面方面我都好滿意。。。但遊戲性真係差到想飛佢出街。。。
還有一個最大問題，無字幕。。。可能對其他人影響唔大。。但對我這些英文聽力有
問題既人。。。遊戲興趣減左 3 成。。。再加上佢那些口音。。。真係每次打都要
寮一寮耳屎先玩得。。。二代我期望一定唔會咁大。。。等其他大哥既 game 評先再算。。。

[someday]

第2集都會支持下
第1集玩完留低一d o哂咀既野係度
又唔知乜頭乜路

如果有睇 Lucy 封 Mail, 會知道果 d 係第 16 個實驗品 (主角係 17) 留低的 (因為長期使用 Animus 令佢有 "bleeding effect")
中文d 詩點解就唔知, 但係其他文字大概都係講緊唔同宗教 / 文化對世界末日嘅描述之類 , 好似瑪雅嘅太陽曆 13.0.0.0.0, 2012 年 12 月 世界末日 (離遊戲中嘅日期剩返 3 個月), 仲有有 d 係聖經引用, etc. 而其他 mail 就有講個 satellite 好似就係會係 12 月發射 and bring peace to the world forever... 我諗房入面果堆埋係想講對即將來臨嘅末日嘅預言?? (我都唔知)

第2集希望玩法真係可以多元性
(雖然第1集重覆得黎都算enjoy既......)

呢樣同你諗法差唔多

雖然遊戲後期感覺上有 d repeating, 但係其他格鬥, 畫面, 細節, 場景, 控制方面都一流
尤其係個故事, 真係好正, 直程攞去拍電視劇都得.. 我等緊佢出更好嘅第二季

『Assassin's Creed 2』は2010年4月までに発売される。米アナリストが予想
2009年01月21日 18:30:00 / by riot_兄
http://www.gamespark.jp/news/177/17758.html

おなじみ業界アナリストのMichael Pachter氏は、Assassin's Creed（アサシン クリード）の続編が、少なくとも二つのメジャータイトルと共に、次回の営業年度となる2010年4月までの間に発売されると予測しています。

この情報は、Pacther氏が投資家にあてた報告から明らかになったもの。2010年度におけるUbisoftの業績は期待できるものになると説明した文書の中で、まだ正式に発表されていないAssassin’s Creed 2に加え、Splinter Cell Convictionや新作MMMORPG Avatarの登場を予想しています。

続編の舞台はフランス革命になる！という同氏の爆弾発言も以前ありましたが、今回の予想がもし当たれば、Ubisoftの二大ステルスヒーローであるアルタイルとサム・フィッシャーが、同じ時期に復活を遂げるという展開だってあるかもしれませんね。

Analyst: ‘Assassin’s Creed 2′ Coming Before April 2010
Posted by Stephen Totilo on 1/20/09 at 2:16 pm.
http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2009/...re-april-2010/

Financial analyst Michael Pachter is predicting that a sequel to Ubisoft’s 2007 “Assassin’s Creed” will be released in the publisher’s next fiscal year, along with at least two other major releases.

***

While logic has long since led gamers to the conclusion that the multi-million-selling fall 2007 Ubisoft hit “Assassin’s Creed” (Xbox 360, PS3, PC) would get a sequel, the game’s publisher has yet to reveal a date for on.

But in a note to investors today in anticipation of Ubisoft’s third-quarter earnings report, leading video game industry analyst Michael Pachter of Wedbush Morgan Securities predicted that an “Assassin’s Creed 2” will be out before the end of the company’s 2010 Fiscal Year. That year runs from April 1, 2009 - March 31, 2010.

From Pachter’s report:

We believe investors should focus on Ubisoft’s prospects for FY:10, particularly as its products continue to sell well on the strong Wii and DS platforms, and as it rolls out a suberb [sic] lineup. We expect solid year-over-year growth from the casual (Nintendo) games lineup, with the introduction of two new brands next fall, and expect strong revenue contribution from Assassin’s Creed 2, Splinter Cell Conviction and Avatar next fiscal year.

The “AC2″ prediction isn’t a big shock. The previous game ended on a big cliffhanger, its engine has proven versatile enough to already produce the 2008 “Prince of Persia,” and Ubi is surely eager to have another “Creed” blockbuster.

So not only does FY10 sound reasonable for “Assassin’s Creed 2,” it seems likely. So to does that release window for “Splinter Cell: Conviction,” which had been expected for release even back in 2007 before being hit with delay.

Ubisoft could not be reached by press time to comment on the progress or release date of “Assassin’s Creed 2.”
