- Ubisoft’s next major game after Black Flag Resynced is the mainline Ghost Recon.
- The conglomerate is still struggling with the Far Cry IP, as work continues on the two projects.
- The Splinter Cell remake has also allegedly been delayed.
Ubisoft went through a massive resizing and project cancellation spree at the start of 2026. Its new strategy is to focus on annual classic franchises that are known to make lots of money, but even that plan is seemingly not progressing as smoothly as once hoped.
A new report now reveals that the studio’s next big game after Black Flag Resynced will be the mainline Ghost Recon, codenamed ‘OVR.’ The Black Flag remake will release on July 9th this year, so the anticipated shooter will apparently launch in FY26/27.
Why it matters: Ubisoft is currently working on several projects across its major franchises, but most are not in a good state, even after the recent internal delays. Therefore, the future of the conglomerate still hangs in the air.
Trusted insider Tom Henderson also reveals in the latest Insider Gaming Weekly podcast episode that the two Far Cry games are ‘going through hell and back.’
The next big game by Ubisoft after Black Flag is, if all goes well, is Ghost Recon. I Don’t Think we are seeing Splinter cell [Remake] next year. […] Far Cry is going through hell and back right now.
-Insider, Tom henderson.
The gameplay loop of the Far Cry extraction shooter has been on the drawing board since early 2025, so its core design could change entirely in the future. Meanwhile, the mainline Far Cry 7 is also rumored to focus more on multiplayer and is allegedly set in New England.
Their release windows remain undetermined.
Additionally, the next Ghost Recon game is also rumored to be in jeopardy at Ubisoft, despite its close launch window. The game could be delayed or severely scaled down in scope, as the company laid off 105 developers at the legendary Tom Clancy studio late last month.
On the other hand, the struggling Splinter Cell remake has also been internally delayed, so it won’t launch next year. The Rayman Legends remake, however, was said to be progressing well.
