After some leaks and rumors, Ubisoft has now officially confirmed the new game Project Q. We will show you what we know about the PvP game and why the developers quickly clarified something about NFTs.
What kind of game is this? In recent weeks, more and more rumors about Project Q have emerged. On April 23, a tweet from Ubisoft followed, beginning with the words “So… we heard you heard…”. They confirmed the game that is being developed under the codename “Project Q”. It is a “Team Battle Arena” game that is still in early development.
Here we show you everything we know so far about the game and what leaks say.
No Battle Royale, no NFTs – This is Project Q
The official details:
- Codename so far “Project Q”
- Is in early development
- Coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC
- A team game designed for PvP
- No Battle Royale
- There should be a variety of PvP modes
- “Fun” is the main focus
- There will be no NFTs in the game
- You can register on the Ubisoft website for future tests
Why is there an NFT statement? In the comments under the official tweet, players feared through various hints that the new game would offer options for Non-Fungible Tokens. One writes that the “Q” might stand for Quartz. In December 2021, Ubisoft announced the Quartz currency and activated it in Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Players were very dissatisfied with that. Because of the “Q” in the name of the new game, they feared a comeback of this currency. However, Ubisoft states that they “are not currently planning to add NFTs to the game” (via Twitter.com).
What has been leaked? The insider Tom Henderson has recently discovered some information about the game. He is known to have contacts in the gaming industry through which he has been able to predict some announcements.
According to his information, the game has two game modes. One is “Showdown” and a type of Battle Royale, in which four teams of two players each compete. The other is called Battle Zone and is an arena battle mode where two teams of four players each compete to be the first to reach 100 points. This contradicts Ubisoft’s announcement, which specifically mentioned the absence of Battle Royale. On the website Exputer.com, Henderson writes his insider report including leaked gameplay video.
Although there are a few weapons in the leaked gameplay that shoot projectiles, it doesn’t look like a typical shooter. The game features special items like the Wukong staff, with which players can execute cool combat combinations. The game seems to focus primarily on movement and melee combat.
More official details will be available as public testing of the game approaches. On the registration page, it states that players should be patient as the product is still in development.
