Project U by UBISOFT: Gameplay Information and More

Ubisoft’s Project U is set to start its closed Playtest on October 14, but what exactly is Project U?

We Have learned that Project U is Project Pathfinder, which I originally reported on via eXputer earlier this year. It’s currently unclear if “Pathfinder” will be the game’s last name or if it was an old project name that has now changed to “U.”

First, Project U stands for “Unite,” which is Ubisoft’s Annecy’s play on words for the project because teamwork is crucial in being able to win. Ubisoft’s own description for Project U is “Unity is crucial in this session-based co-op shooter, where many players unite to prevail against an overwhelming threat!”

The original goal of Pathfinder was to try and reach the middle of the map as AI enemies got more difficult the further in you got. It’s understood that this is still the case, but players can only access different areas once they hit a level threshold. So, players will need to fight to progress.

Players must complete missions that include killing AI enemies, defending targets, capturing camps, and more to level up.

Players in Project U will be able to select one of four different classes of heroes. Attacker, Defender, Medic, and Support, all of which have different abilities.

Glimpses of leaked footage have already hit the internet, and the game’s graphics appear similar to Fortnite. It’s understood that Project U runs on the Godot Engine instead of Ubisoft’s Snowdrop or Anvil engines.

The game has a central hub where players can assemble, use the shooting range, engage in minigames, and more.

When given a chance to comment on this story, Ubisoft provided the following response:

“While some details of the game have been made public, we will soon be able to conduct a closed test for it under NDA. The game is still a work in development. Later, we’ll reveal more details about the game.”
