Ubisoft’s Guillemot: Prepare For New Hardware ‘In The Next Few Years’
From Gamasutra:
Ubisoft is already preparing for new hardware, CEO Yves Guillemot said alongside the company’s full year results announcements today.
"We need to get ready for the future generation of consoles," he said emphatically on the company’s conference call to investors and analysts. "In the next few years, there will be new home and handheld consoles, and if you don’t invest… you will not be able to cope with both [the existing and new generation consoles].
None of the big three console manufacturers has given any indication of upcoming hardware revamps, although Microsoft yesterday promised that its presentation at this year’s upcoming E3 would "completely transform how people think about home entertainment."
