Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, Watch Dogs confirmed for Xbox One

Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag and Watch Dogs — two of Ubisoft's most highly anticipated games — will both be released on Xbox One. For those of you who have been busy for the past hour or so, Xbox One is the name of Microsoft's new next-gen console.

“The next generation of consoles will reinvigorate our industry and make it possible for us to deliver incredible new entertainment to gamers,” said Yves Guillemot, co-founder and chief executive officer of Ubisoft. “Our teams are using the innovations in connectivity, immersion and social gaming included in Xbox One to create original and memorable next-gen gaming experiences.”

AC4 and Watch Dogs will be among "at least six" next-gen games — a mix of new and existing franchises — released for Xbox One in the system's first year. More information about the lineup of games planned for the Xbox One will be revealed during Ubisoft's press conference at E3.

Add in another 15 exclusive games and the Xbox One has quite a decent launch lineup. Who said the next Xbox wouldn't be for gamers?
