Looks like Ubisoft is going back to the Tom Clancy trough. Not that I'm complaining, so far I've loved all of the games based on Clancy's books.
EndWar, hitting "next-gen consoles" in the 07/08 fiscal year, will be set on the battlefields of World War III, though it doesn't sound like there's any book tied to this particular title.
The developers will be lead by Michael de Plater at Ubi's Shanghai studio, whose members also worked on Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six and Splinter Cell games.
"Our development teams are invigorated to be creating the first 100 percent next-generation Tom Clancy brand," said Serge Hasco t, chief creative officer at Ubisoft. "Our success with Tom Clancy franchises is unparalleled in the next-generation and Tom Clancy's EndWar will be a marvelous addition to the already critically acclaimed library of games. A strategy game like no other, EndWar will allow gamers to lead their own armies against hundreds of others online in real global locations on the massive battlefields of World War III."
The game will be shown off in the June issue of EGM, set to hit stands in early May. No word if this is connected to Ubi's JSF site, though I suspect it might.
