Towards the conclusion of 2019 , Ubisoft had foretell that it willpostpone the release of a few gameswhich included the likes ofWatch Dogs Legion , Rainbow Six Quarantine , andGods & Monsters .

According toEurogamer , Ubisoft has cut a statement that the game will be showcased subsequently this summer and that it will be get a new title at the same time . The developer also revealed that the footage leak was substantial - and it was the E3 2019 demo for the printing press . That being said , Ubisoft clarified that the plot has undergo significant change in almost all aspects since then , so the leaked footage scarce represents the current state of the game . The demo was available to play onGoogle Stadia- under the nameOrpheus . It chop-chop go viral before being taken down and footage set about surfacing on the internet . A Stadia voice , later on , issued a statement excuse to Ubisoft and stating that the biz was not intended to be made public .
Coming to the leaked footage , it seems like initial surmise were true . The game take out ample breathing in fromTheLegend of Zelda : breathing time of the Wild , with mechanics such as the stamina bar front like a complete rip from the most recentZeldatitle . The stamina even depletes while climb , something which is unique to theLegend of Zeldafranchise . Apart from that , the HUD and UI take care like to the one inAssassin ’s Creed Odyssey . However , that looks like more of a proxy given how out of place it looks in comparison to the biz ’s art mode . Apart from the protagonist , the other NPCs are bland fashion model without textures , hinting towards the fact that the game must be at a very former stage of growth at the time of the demonstration ’s creation .
The news leak has already started infuriatingNintendofans because of the similaritiesGods & Monstersshares with theZeldafranchise . curiously enough , The Legend of Zeldahas quite a large fanbase on other non - Nintendo platforms as well considering the fact that many people do emulate the games on PC . If Ubisoft is able-bodied to get this one right field , it should be able to make a compelling guinea pig for itself , especially for instrumentalist who do n’t own a Nintendo cabinet .
