Games Thirst – Amazing Life
Ubisoft has revealed that The Division, the highly anticipated that stole the show at E3 2013 will not be released on PS3 and Xbox 360 — or Wii U for that matter, because it’s too massive a game, and last-gen systems can’t handle it.
In a Q&A sent to Gaming Bolt, Ubisoft said:
Tom Clancy’s The Division has been designed specifically for next-gen. We were only able to achieve many of the features we have in the game thanks to the power of the new generation of consoles. Those platforms have opened many new opportunities to create more immersive and dynamic worlds, and enabled us to create the universe we had envisioned for the game. This is why there are no plans to release the game on current generation platforms. Our game will be availableon Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
The publisher also believes that PS4 and Xbox 4 are revolutionary new consoles.
Absolutely. The new consoles are revolutionary machines.They have more powerful hardware, innovative input devices and services, faster memory, and the latest generation of more programmable and flexible graphic processors. This explains why expectations for this generation of games are much higher:aiming at more realism, graphical fidelity, a higher level of detail in physics and animation, etc. With the next-gen consoles, players will discover new kinds of experiences that we believe will result in industry-changing and immersive games. We’re really excited about the upcoming games;it is the beginning of an awesome new era for players.
The game will become available next year on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
