Ubisoft unveils new Clancy series

Strategy title EndWar joins best-selling franchise

Ubisoft has unveiled the latest addition to its lucrative Tom Clancy franchise — future strategy title EndWar.

Promising to deliver an RTS experience that takes full advantage of the next-generation consoles, the project is being headed by creative director Michael de Plater at the publisher's Shanghai studio.

"Our development teams are invigorated to be creating the first 100 per cent next-generation Tom Clancy brand," commented Serge Hascoet, chief creative officer at Ubisoft.

"Our success with the Tom Clancy franchises is unparalleled in the next-generation and Tom Clancy's EndWar will be a marvellous addition to the already critically acclaimed library of games."

Collectively, the Tom Clancy series has sold more than 45 million units worldwide to date.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas was awarded the Best First-Person Action Game of the Year accolade by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences, while Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter took the BAFTA for Best Videogame of the Year in 2006.
