Ubisoft To Focus on PS4 & Xbox One Games? The Rainbox Six Siege, The Division & More Not Coming to PS3 & Xbox 360

It seems that the future of last generation consoles -- PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 -- looks bleak as far as Ubisoft is concerned. The game developer and publisher recently revealed that some of its major releases in the future will only be made for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

In a company earnings meeting, CEO Yves Guillemot announced that games like Assassin's Creed, Rainbow Six, The Division and the unannounced franchise will not be released for PS4 and Xbox 360.

The AAA titles mentioned are all scheduled for a launch this year aside from The Division, which was initially slated for release this year, but was pushed back to 2016 due to the developers' decision to spend more time in improving the game.

However, the firm is not completely removing support in all titles for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. "On Just Dance, we will continue to bring old-gen console versions," Guillemot added.

The main reason for the decision of Ubisoft to put all efforts in current generation devices remains unclear. However, a report in their earnings briefing seemed to provide hints.

The breakdown of sales per platform has been enumerated, which revealed that PlayStation 4 and Xbox One were the top two consoles for Ubisoft titles, Game Rant reported.

It was noted that for the company's 2014-2015 financial year, PS4 users comprised 32 percent of the firm's sales followed by Xbox One at 20 percent. The combined sales for the current-gen consoles made up more than half of their annual earnings. Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 were both at 13 percent -- only a slight margin ahead of PC at 12 percent.

Compared to the previous financial year's earnings, the current generation consoles only comprised 15 percent of the annual sales, which could mean that more gamers already transitioned to the latest devices out in the market.

As such, it appears that the best move for Ubisoft is to develop games on the current generation consoles and PC platforms. The company has not made any announcement regarding titles for the Nintendo Wii and Wii U.
