PARIS June 2, 2015 Today, Ubisoft confirmed it is showcasing new content from three of its highly-anticipated titles and announcing several exciting new games at the 2015 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). Kicking off the week on Monday, June 15 with the Ubisoft E3 2015 Conference, Ubisoft will share its lineup at the Ubisoft booth from June 16 18 and extend the invitation to fans at the Uplay Lounge.

E3 is always a very special moment for the entire gaming community because we all come together to share our visions for the future of entertainment and reveal the games into which weve been pouring our energy and passion. The players excitement and feedback when they first experience what were developing is what motivates us the most, said Yves Guillemot, co-founder and CEO, Ubisoft. We love being a part of this great community, and our talented teams continue to take risks, push boundaries and offer more freedom and choice within our games so that we can create long-lasting, enriching experiences for the players.
