It seems Ubisoft are likely to cave in listen to the growing number of signatories to petitions for PC The Division. It’s due out winter 2014, and they’re ”not ruling out” PC.
The setting for The Division is that a virus has been spread throughout NYC via dollar bills. It’s set three-weeks after Black Friday, America’s most retail-blitzkrieging holiday.
”It’s set for release winter 2014 on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but we’re not ruling out other platforms because we do also read the internet,” said Ubisoft’s Ryan Barnard. The game boasts a world filled with factions, near endless distractions, seamless PvP, and even companion apps.
”Ubisoft as a company considers … maximising the potential for a game, so if the audience is there and the desire is there,” he continued. Recently Ubisoft delayed Rayman Legends because they wanted to bring it to other platforms as they felt keeping it a Wii U exclusive wasn’t a wise commercial decision.
An online petition for The Division launching on PC has exceeded 110k signatures.
