Ubisoft Forward is set to air on Saturday, June 12 at 12PM PT / 3PM ET / 7PM UTC / 8PM BST, and while we already have some expectations, it has now been stated there will be "some surprises that you won’t want to miss."
According to a blog post, confirmed titles appearing include Far Cry 6, Riders Republic, and "the next mainline entry in the Rainbow Six franchise" - which was originally going to be called Rainbow Six Quarantine. Interestingly, there's no mention of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, despite the fact it was originally meant to be released back in January, before being delayed twice.
It could be part of the surprises mentioned, but considering Riders Republic has been cited to appear, it seems unlikely. That begs the question as to what Ubisoft has up its sleeve. It's too early for another Assassin's Creed, and we already know Far Cry 6's release date, so now the speculation begins.
Personally, we would love to see Splinter Cell return. It's been far too long and poor old Sam Fisher has appeared in every Ubisoft property except another mainline entry. A new title would be perfect about now, but more than likely we'll see those iconic goggles, only to find it's a Watch Dogs: Legion crossover or something like that. Still, we can dream it may happen. It would sure make a lot of fans happy - us included.
What do you think these Ubisoft Forward "surprises" could be? Let us know in the comments below.

I just want Splinter Cell. The first three games are some of my favorites of all time, and I have really fond memories playing them cooperatively with my best friend was young teens. I consider them, along with Double Agent, much better stealth games than the MGS franchise, of which I also love—and I’ve always gravitated more to the SC games than the MGS. I remember having my mind blown when you could sneak up on a person sleeping inside of a tent, cut a slit in the back of it, and attack. I also think the jumping on the walls and using that as a stealth mechanic was incredible and very innovative for its time. Please just bring back this franchise, and don’t bring it into an open world collectathon with repetitive missions.
I want The Division 3: Warmongers of Vegas
Splinter cell and that free division game releasing after the show
I'd take a new Splinter Cell, new Rayman and a new Division tbh. I am also a fan of the Watch Dogs series so would take a WD4 reveal as well although its far too early for that with Legion not having long been out
Haven't actually played Legion yet as don't wanna get it just yet when it'll only come down further in price and there is a possibility of Ubisoft joining Gamepass (don't think this would be announced as part of Ubisoft conference though)
It's worth remembering ubisoft have R splinter cell and assassins creed titles that haven't been shown, I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be one of them
The only thing from Ubisoft that would surprise me is Rayman.
If Ubi can't come up with a Splinter Cell sequel, then at least remake the first one with next gen visuals. That'll be atleast better than nothing.
Wouldn’t mind some news on Beyond Good and Evil 2 or Splinter Cell.
Obviously, as a big Ubisoft fan, I am excited. But what I really want is an Ubisoft Plus on console announcement.
Included with Game Pass? Sure, but I am not holding my breath on that one. I’d probably subscribe in a heartbeat regardless.
