Where to watch Ubisoft Forward 2024 — and what you can expect to see

This year’s Ubisoft showcase will include updates on Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and XDefiant

Monday’s Ubisoft Forward 2024 is this year’s exclusive look at everything the major publisher-developer is working on — or, at least, everything it’s ready to share with players.

This year’s event likely isn’t going to be an all-out barrage of release dates and new game announcements (much like the previous Summer Game Fest events from this weekend), but Ubisoft has promised plenty of updates and reveals — here’s how to tune in and what to expect.

What time is Ubisoft Forward?

Ubisoft Forward 2024 will stream live on Monday at 12 p.m. PDT/3 p.m. EDT/9 p.m. CEST with a 30-minute pre-show beginning at 11:30 a.m. PDT/2:30 p.m. EDT/8:30 p.m. CEST. You’ll be able to livestream it here:

What games to expect at Ubisoft Forward

Expect fresh intel on Star Wars Outlaws, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and XDefiant. Based on the Ubisoft Forward trailer above, it seems likely that we’ll get gameplay trailers for all of these titles and more.

Star Wars Outlaws already has a release date of Aug. 30, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows should be released on Nov. 15. XDefiant was released on May 21, so expect the showcase to include an overview of upcoming updates and patches.

Other than those three huge titles, we aren’t exactly sure what to expect from Ubisoft’s showcase. We’d love to see any update at all on Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, but we’re not holding our breath. We’re also hoping to see new trailers for the Splinter Cell remake, but no promises.

Players can also tune into the Ubisoft Forward to get Twitch drops and other rewards — just make sure to link your Ubisoft account with your Twitch account if you care about scoring extra trinkets and skins in games, new and old.
