Ubisoft denies “leaked” release schedule

A few days a leaked Ubisoft release schedule found its way to many gaming sites, and now Ubisoft is denying the contents of this schedule. “Denying” is a very loose term, and it does seem as if the titles mentioned could be released in the following year. Not only were there Xbox 360 titles mentioned, but possible launch titles for PS3 and Revolution were slated for release in late 2007. GamePro.com removed the list from their site after being contacted by Ubisoft, but GamesIndustry.biz didn’t receive any information from their UK department.

* July 2006: Enchant Arms (Xbox 360)
* November 2006: Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six 5 (PS3, Xbox 360, Rev, PSP)
* November 2006: Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter (PS3)
* November 2006: Rayman 4 (PS3, Xbox 360, Rev, PS2, Handheld)
* November 2006: Blazing Angel 1.5 (PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox)
* February 2007: Brothers in Arms 3 (Xbox 360, Rev, PS2, NDS)
* February 2007: Brothers in Arms 2: Earned in Blood (PSP)
* March 2007: Tom Clancy’s Firehawk (PS3, Xbox 360)
* March 2007: Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon 4 (PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox, PS2)
* March 2007: Naruto (Xbox 360)
* March 2007: Assassin (PS3, Xbox 360, Rev, PSP)
* Spring 2007: Game 5 (PS3, Xbox 360)
* Spring 2007: Ninja Turtles (PS3, Rev, Xbox 360, Handhelds, current gen consoles)
* TBA: Lumines 2 (PS2, PSP)
* TBA: Alive (PS3, Xbox 360)
* TBA: Dark Messiah of Might & Magic (PS3, Xbox 360)
* TBA: Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter Mission Pack (PS3, Xbox 360, PSP)

While the list has proven to be true up until now, only time will tell if this is in fact a leaked Ubisoft schedule or just some fan-created document. Realistically, if any company’s secret release schedule was leaked over the internet the first thing they would do is deny its credibility right away, which is what Ubisoft has done. The fact that they have chosen to acknowledge such a rumor might mean that there is some truth to it after all.
