Ubisoft Confirms Support for Microsoft Natal and Sony Motion Controller

Ubisoft Confirms Support for Microsoft Natal and Sony Motion Controller

None

On the Ubisoft investor call this morning, CEO Yves Guillemot noted that Ubi is jumping into developing software for both Microsoft Natal and Sony’s motion controller.

“We have around ten games that will come out for Natal during the first six months of its release,” said Guillemot. “And we expect four to five games for Sony’s new motion controller.”

These 10 games will be mostly new properties that take advantage of the motion controls. Existing properties – i.e. Prince of Persia – may or may not have additional or bonus functionality as a result of connecting a motion-sensing peripheral.

Guillemot outlined this sentiment when he stated, “I didn’t count the games that are supporting the new functions that those accessories will bring.” Continuing to say, “I was more speaking about casual games that we are doing on those two machines. We can consider on those games 70 percent new properties.”
