Ubisoft – World in Conflict: Soviet Assault no longer coming to consoles

worldinconflict4

The writing’s been on the wall for months, but only now has Ubisoft finally finished with the formalities and said, “Oh yeah – that.”

Speaking with IGN, a Ubisoft rep confirmed that the sparse console RTS landscape won’t be seeing Massive’s blip on the radar after all.

“World of Conflict: Soviet Assault will be released for the PC later this month. A console version of World in Conflict is not planned for release at this time,” the rep said.

Bummer. And Soviet Assault’s vocal controls seem pretty much tailor-made for consoles too. Shame, that.

Yeah weird, WiC without its base building and only units fighting seems much more ideal than other RTS games even the camera controls WiC uses would map well enough to a gamepad.

Though the console release would have been the full WiC + the soviet assault expansion maybe Ubisoft have Massive working on something else now.
