Late last year, a GeForce Now database leaked from Nvidia to the public, revealing a series of unannounced games. One of Ubisoft’s entries on this list, “Project Q”, recently brought more details to light, triggering Ubisoft’s official announcement of the game.
According to Exputer, Project Q is a “PvP battle arena game” with a low number of players, fast battle royale mode on a small map, as well as a more traditional objective capture mode.
Exuter’s coverage also included early gameplay footage of Project Q. It is noteworthy that although the gameplay footage contained some projectile weapons, it did not exactly look like a “shooter”. The demo player had a choice between several items with unique abilities, such as “Icarus Wings”, which offers a high jump and soar, or “Wukong’s Staff” with martial arts chain combination abilities, and the players switched freely between distance attacks and melee combinations. , frenetic fights.
That focus on movement and melee can set Project Q apart from the many PvP shooters on the market and may be a motivating factor behind its inquisitive “combat arena game” designation.
So we heard, you heard … 🤷We introduce the code name “Project Q”, a team arena that lets players really own the experience! The game is in early development and we will continue to test, so so far all you can do is sign up for upcoming tests: https://t.co/TMRKwiUzbJ pic.twitter.com/hZ40OkPdumApril 23, 2022
Ubisoft apparently has in response to this latest leak officially announced the game, which still uses the name “Project Q” and has opened up for public playtests to come at an unspecified later date. Ubisoft’s announcement also clarified that the game is still in early development.
There are still several tempting posts from the Nvidia leak that have not yet received official announcements such as XCOM 3, “Bioshock 2022” and PC ports in Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3. It is still unknown how many of these projects will see the light of day.
