Assassin's Creed 5 Unity Release Date, Latest News: Ubisoft Says Upcoming Game will Utilize Full Next-Gen Capabilities for PS4 and Xbox One (VIDEO)

Assassin's Creed 5: Unity will be taking advantage of Next-gen capabilities says Ubisoft Chairman in a recent interview.

CEO Yves Guillemot spoke about the Unity's game play whether it's solo or multiplayer, on the Ubisoft blog.

"You want liberty," Guillemot told Ubisoft's blog, "When you want to play solo, you play solo. If you want to play with your friends, then you let them come join you. The seamless solo/multiplayer is something that we've developed and that will continue to grow in the next few years."

He further commented on the game's amazing new features via the PS4 and Xbox One. He promises that this next Assassin's Creed game will take the series to another level.

"What I saw from the beginnings of this industry was, during those console shifts, there are lots of opportunities," Guillemot said, "Each time a new console is coming, there are lots of opportunities to create new brands or new types of gameplay - to change the worlds players are spending their time in."

He continued, "It's a game that takes full advantage of the new gen. It's really a good demonstration of what those machines can do. And people are amazed. They didn't expect those machines to deliver that level of graphics and animation quality, the depth of the number of people that can move in the environment, and so on. It's helping the brand to have a new beginning with totally different possibilities."

Unity's release date will most likely not be experiencing any delays, announced game developer Ubisoft.

The company said the PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions will all be released in unison with one another on October 28.

"We're always aiming to ship all our games on all platforms at the same time," producer Lesley Phord-Toy said to Rock Paper Shotgun, "I don't have any specific news on the PC version of Assassin's Creed Unity, but I do know we're planning on shipping on all three [platforms]: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. I haven't heard any news differently than that."

She explained PC is the most intricate platform to develop for, but is still not worried about whether the job will be completed on time.

"It can be challenging. PC has a variety of different hardware configurations that you can't necessarily predict. On a console you know what's in the box. Every customer has the same configuration for the most part, and first-parties push firmware updates so everyone has what you're expecting to have. PCs are nowhere near as consistent. So it can be extremely challenging to try and support as many of those permutations as possible," she stated.
The game was showed off at this year's E3 conference in Los Angeles. Gamers are especially excited for this version due to its new coop gameplay feature, and now players from all over the world will be able to combine efforts to complete action packed missions.
