Ubisoft has shared further details on its upcoming Ubisoft Forward showcase, set to take place on 12th June during E3 2021.
It'll actually be made up of the main show, a pre-show, and a post-show, with the first of these kicking off at 7pm BST. The pre-show will offer up news and updates from current games like For Honor, Trackmania, The Crew 2, Brawlhalla, Watch Dogs: Legion, "and more".
The main show's big draw appears to be the next mainline entry in the Rainbow Six franchise, which will be receiving world premiere gameplay footage and trailers. There'll also be news on Far Cry 6, Riders Republic, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and Rainbow Six Siege.
It doesn't sound like there'll be a whole lot going on for Nintendo fans then, but Ubisoft's EMEA Executive Director Alain Corre says that the team will be showcasing "a diverse portfolio of games with something for every type of player, not forgetting a few surprises." As long as the Just Dance panda is there, we're happy.
The full E3 2021 schedule has now been confirmed, with Nintendo taking to the digital stage on the final day. Will you be tuning in?

I'd love a Far Cry game on the Switch.
I wish for new Imagine / Petz / Rabbids games from Ubisoft presentation.
For some reason I'm expecting a big licensed title to be announced.
Mario+Rabbids 2? Maybe?
To announce that they don't think Switch is good enough to run any of their games so not bothering with it as obviously the console is a flop
That's sarcasm by the way
I would love Assassin's Creed Ezio collection on the switch ALL on the cartridge!!!
I’ll likely have it on in the background, I only hope that a good number of those titles aren’t just variations of “The Ubisoft Game”.
Tom Clancy's Rhythm Heaven
The perfect presentation for me would be Far Cry 6 and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla released on the Switch + Rabbids 2!!
That's not realistic, so if we get one of those I will be happy!!

You're Ubisoft; you are probably the most predictable games company at E3.
Nothing as ususal when it comes to Nintendo Switch except some ports and cartoony casual games.
Ah, Ubisoft. That "AAA" mega-publisher who shows off half a dozen shooters whose names could be swapped and nobody be the wiser.
About the only game they could announce that I would begin to care about would be a follow-up to Mario & Rabbids: Kingdom Battle.
And be as cringeworthy as usual, one good thing is you will not get all the audience fake hollering.
I'd be surprised if they announce something that isn't an open world game or a shooter
They are changing their name from “ieuxbisoftuh” to “youbeesaf(d)”
RAYMAN 3 or a brand new RAYMAN game?
not gonna waste time watching this live for Switch games! Made that mistake 2 years ago lol
Will check for anything of interest after
Farcry 6 is looking good, and I'm hoping to hear that they are putting Ubisoft Plus onto gamepass
@Yosher. I agree. I hope there is one announced at the e3
@elias84631 yes like Xenoblade chronicles 2, not a port or cartoon. fire emblem three houses, not a port or cartoon. those 2 games alone beat out anything in the history that the GARBAGE Sony has put out. stop being a troll.
IMO, Far Cry 6 is the most boring-looking FC since Primal. Dictators, rebels, crappy country with dirt roads.. SNORE 😴
@tntswitchfan68 Uh, I don't think he was referring to the Switch as a whole, rather Ubisoft's presumed output for the Switch at E3. Also, where does Sony fit into this?
Maybe they'll announce they patched Hungry Shark World, and now it won't crash. /sarcasm
Trackmania on Switch would be amazing, not played it in a long time so hopefully there aren't too many online service payments associated with it these days.
Otherwise, I usually catch their trailers after the event. I just get infuriated how the reveal games like hollywood blockbusters that invariably skip Switch.
Fingers crossed for Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.
@CactusMan Beyond Good and Evil HD was on PS3, so it should be able to run on Switch.
I would really like to see a new Rayman game for Switch, even if Michel Ancel is sadly no longer involved.
In my opinion, the only great
game they've ever made is Rayman 2.
Would love to see a port of Beyond Good & Evil and/or Child of Eden for Switch. But I find it difficult to support a company that turns a blind eye to sexual misconduct.

@tntswitchfan68 I'm not a troll. I mean Ubisoft doesn't port its recent games to the switch due to the hardware and port the not demanding like Just Dance, exclusives.
I hope one of them will be a new Rayman game and/or Rayman coming to SSBU.
"A few surprises."
Remember those features from the last games? They are now DLC and accessible through microtransactions.
Surprise!
Here's hoping a return of Ghost Recon Phantoms exclusively for the Switch! Yeah right I'm just another old man screaming into the clouds.
New Trials game please. Or port the previous entry that hasn't come to the Switch yet.
How about Peggle.
There were rumors of a Mario + Rabbids 2 right? That's the number one want of the whole show for me!
A few surprises?
They'll throw in some bugs on their presentation, including one that will crash the whole presentation.
All I want is some Splinter Cell...even if you're just re-releasing old ones, Ubisoft...
@MS7000 he has to mention Sony in a negative light whenever possible! I think it's how he sleeps at night. Apparently its impossible to like more than one console manufacturer!
Me personally, I'm really hoping for Mario and rabbids 2 to be announced. Would be a day one for me. The first one is still one of the best games you can play on the switch.
@Giygas_95 a splinter cell collection would be awesome on the switch. Perfectly paced game to play on the go and I reckon it would sell really well.
@Serialsid I'm sure they would all run fine on Switch too. I mean Blacklist was on Wii U, and Nintendo consoles have had every main game except Conviction. I'd hope it would include both versions of Double Agent as well.
@Giygas_95 yeah give it to Panic Button to port them over and your right, would run great. Would be a day one buy, but we're probably just dreaming. Some of these companies don't seem to want to make easy money.
New Rocksmith, please!
I always enjoy the live chat on here whenever Ubisoft put on a show. Shooter? Drink! Rubble and foliage? Drink? Scowling protagonist? Drink! Gravelly voice? Drink!
Mario & Rabbids sequel or sort-of-sequel-as-long-as-it's-not-a-battle-royale-or-otherwise-mainly-multiplayer-focused-game would be very much appreciated.
And a thousand times yes to a Splinter Cell collection. With gyro aiming and all that good Switch stuff. While I loved the first two games i their own time, I'd absolutely love to replay everything from Chaos Theory onwards. Oh, and a Rainbow Six Vegas collection as well. And Beyond Good & Evil HD and 2. Ubisoft may be Ubisoft, but they have a lot of amazing potential, both in ports, sequels, and entirely insane ideas that shouldn't work but could be Mario & Rabbids.
I'm only expecting for them to announce Just Dance, as they always do. Not interested in that franchise at all, so my expectations are super low. If they announce anything, I'll be surprised.
Red Steel 3 for Switch with motion controls!!! I knew it!!!
(Oh no, I forgot to take my meds again)
Surely it's time for a new Rayman
A new splinter cell?
Mario rabbids 2? Or some other nintendo related rpg?
I dont think we will see alot for switch from them. More next gen/pc.
Oh i really hope they announce
Mario + Rabbids 2 !!
I would actually love an Assassin's Creed 1 port to Switch!
The first one made a big impression on me when I was younger. And as a fan of the first, I don't mind the simpler mechanics and the focus on the Animus storyline. I loved how the first one felt more like a science fiction game with an immersive historic setting. It almost made you feel like Where in Time is Carmen San Diego, or a future civilization time traveling to the past. I was severely disappointed with how Desmond's story was unceremoniously tossed aside, even turning me off from the franchise altogether.
@Giygas_95 I think we made these exact same remarks before last E3... But I concur! I would love Chaos Theory with local multiplayer ported to Switch. It would fit perfectly on Switch, with its stealth gameplay and retro nostalgia.
I hope for a new Rayman game. I hope they were talking about that in "surprises"
I love ubi games. Sorry not sorry.
