“We’ll shortly be seeing more content of very high quality and multiple hours that will really show the depths of the open world that is a key element of the promise to enjoy the exploration of the galaxy with multiple planets, so that should bode well for the game in terms of high-quality delivery,” the Ubisoft CFO added.
Ubisoft is also confident about the final product’s graphics. “As we’ve said also for Star Wars, the level of quality of the world and the experience is really very high,” Ubisoft chief executive officer Yves Guillemot added. “We are really leveraging our engine, and I think people will love it,” Guillemot continued.
