<p>Hey-yo! Logan here, and I&#8217;m the Senior Reviews Editor of BagoGames. You&#8217;ve found your way to our liveblog of the Ubisoft E3 press conference. So hang out, keep refreshing, and follow along as we cover the minute-to-minute updates from the video game publisher! Laughter will be had, tears will be shed, and video games are sure to be announced!</p>
<p>Ubisoft is a huge publisher in the industry, and their conference is sure to cover a lot. A leak on the sequel of <em>Grow Home</em> might point to one announcement, and trophies have appeared online for a PS4 port of <em>South Park: The Stick of Truth</em>, but there are sure to be a lot of new things to explore! We can expect more information on <em>Watch Dogs 2</em>. I personally would love to see more on their game <em>For Honor</em>, and <em>Far Cry</em> will undoubtedly poke its head in. But will we FINALLY see <em>Beyond Good and Evil 2?!</em></p>
<p>But let&#8217;s get to the good stuff. All updates will appear below. All timestamps will be PST. Enjoy!</p>

<p><strong>3:00 &#8211;</strong> It&#8217;s over, everyone! Thanks for following along. I&#8217;ve been your liveblogging host, Logan, and make sure you stay right here with BagoGames for coverage on Sony next! Until then, signing off!</p>
<p><strong>2:58 &#8211;</strong> A final video montage of Ubisoft&#8217;s properties. The conference was REALLY long, but overall, quite successful! Ubisoft has some great things coming up!</p>
<p><strong>2:57 &#8211;</strong> Everyone has come onstage. The CEO says that this is 30 years &#8220;&#8230;in the best industry in the world.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>2:55 &#8211;</strong> You will be able to register for Steep Beta online, and the game releases this December.</p>
<p><strong>2:53 &#8211;</strong> They end their Steep coverage by saying that the game is also about &#8220;enjoying the mountains.&#8221; Looks gorgeous to me, and the rest of our BagoGames team is impressed.</p>
<p><strong>2:52 &#8211;</strong> Seems like a great, dynamic Replay mode for editing and sharing.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108649 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142409/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-4.48.28-PM.png" width="783" height="433" />2:48 &#8211;</strong> Gameplay shown. Gorgeous. An open-world sports game.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108648 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142427/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-4.44.47-PM.png" width="777" height="443" />2:47 &#8211;</strong> From Studio Annecy comes <em>Steep</em>. Trailer shown featuring voices of professional athletes cliff-diving, snowboarding, etc.</p>
<p><strong>2:44 &#8211;</strong> New IP. Competitive sports mixed with Open-world gameplay.</p>
<p><strong>2:43 &#8211;</strong> Robot buddy announced with Collector&#8217;s Edition. One more game left!</p>
<p><strong>2:41 &#8211;</strong> DLC will be coming to PlayStation 30 days earlier than anywhere else. Official trailer shown.</p>
<p><strong>2:39 &#8211;</strong> Ubisoft will be partnering with Sony for Watch Dogs 2, just like the first Watch Dogs. Watch Dogs movie officially announced.</p>
<p><strong>2:38 &#8211;</strong> Alright! Demo is over. Again, cool gameplay. CEO takes the stage to talk about Watch Dogs 2.</p>
<p><strong>2:36 &#8211;</strong> Not gonna lie. Gameplay looks fun, but this is a pretty long, semi-boring segment.</p>
<p><strong>2:34 &#8211;</strong> The main character is infiltrating a building and asked for some music. Got some great R&;B/rap. Very nice touch.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108636 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142449/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-4.29.36-PM.png" width="781" height="438" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>2:31 &#8211;</strong> Hacking looks awesome, and the in-game cinematics look excellent.</p>
<p><strong>2:29 &#8211;</strong> Ah, of course! An in-depth look at Watch Dogs 2.</p>
<p><strong>2:28 &#8211;</strong> The stream has been &#8220;hi-jacked&#8221;! Not really, but we are getting a look at something&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>2:26 &#8211;</strong> I definitely think the movie has potential!</p>
<p><strong>2:24 &#8211;</strong> Getting to see a bit of new footage! And some behind the scenes looks.</p>
<p><strong>2:21 &#8211;</strong> Not a whole lot of news here. Discussing the changes, filming locations, etc.</p>
<p><strong>2:20 &#8211;</strong> Frank Marshall (Indiana Jones, Bourne films) takes the stage to discuss the upcoming Assassin&#8217;s Creed movie.</p>
<p><strong>2:18 &#8211;</strong> A trailer in the style of old 90&#8217;s commercials, Trials of the Blood Dragon. Out NOW!</p>
<p><strong>2:16 &#8211;</strong> I have no idea what&#8217;s happening now. Ubisoft employees in red sweatsuits&#8230;wait&#8230;Blood Dragon?!?!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108615 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142512/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-4.13.52-PM.png" width="784" height="443" /><strong>2:15 &#8211;</strong> Grow Up announced for all consoles.</p>
<p><strong>2:13 &#8211;</strong> Grow Home! Sounds like a sequel&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>2:12 &#8211;</strong> Release Date: February 14th, 2017.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108608 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142601/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-4.08.58-PM.png" width="785" height="443" />2:08 &#8211;</strong> Definitely a Dynasty Warriors feel, in my opinion. There also appears to be a major element of combat in regards to changes stances.</p>
<p><strong>2:05 &#8211;</strong> We get some gameplay of the vikings, headed to plunder the samurai.</p>
<p><strong>2:04 &#8211;</strong> Last year, they outlined the multiplayer element of the game. This is a trailer for the single-player campaign.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108596 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142720/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.59.33-PM.png" width="782" height="437" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>2:01 &#8211;</strong> Looks like a new trailer for For Honor, describing &#8220;A thousand years of war&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>1:59 &#8211;</strong> Star Trek: Bridge Crew comes out this fall on all major VR systems.</p>
<p><strong>1:56 &#8211;</strong> Levar Burton has taken the stage to talk about the experience. He emphasizes that everyone had to do their best to get the job done.</p>
<p><strong>1:54 &#8211;</strong> Official title &#8211; Star Trek: Bridge Crew. Joke about the title being previously leaked on Reddit.</p>
<p><strong>1:53 &#8211;</strong> A team-based co-op game. Everyone must work together. Looks interesting, but there&#8217;s not a lot going on and the graphics do NOT look great.</p>
<p><strong>1:52 &#8211;</strong> Ah, of course. Star Trek VR. Featuring a gameplay look with Levar Burton! And other celebs, I suppose.</p>
<p><strong>1:51 &#8211;</strong> A new VR space game from Red Storm Studio?</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108587 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142800/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.45.39-PM.png" width="792" height="441" />1:46 &#8211;</strong> You&#8217;re an eagle trying to capture a rabbit and get it back to your nest. If I&#8217;m not mistaken, graphics seem to have taken a step backwards since we last saw it&#8230;But still looks fun!</p>
<p><strong>1:45 &#8211;</strong> The first live PvP gameplay in VR. Exciting. 3v3 teams in the game, capture the flag style.</p>
<p><strong>1:43 &#8211;</strong> Eagle Flight for VR. This is one I&#8217;m EXTREMELY excited for. Palmer Lucky, creator of Oculus, is on stage to play.</p>
<p><strong>1:41 &#8211;</strong> Survival Expansion announced. Trailer released. Looks like trying to survive in a storm. Interesting.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108583 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142822/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.39.50-PM.png" width="784" height="441" />1:40 &#8211;</strong> 3 costumes available in honor of Ubi&#8217;s 30th! Available for UbiClub members.</p>
<p><strong>1:39 &#8211;</strong> Time for <em>The Division. </em>The new Underground Expansion is discussed, and comes out June 28th for XBO and PC, and August 2nd on PS4.</p>
<p><strong>1:36 &#8211;</strong> The characters want to become superheroes and start a billion-dollar franchise, but instead Civil War erupts! And PC Principal makes a cameo at the end!</p>
<p><strong>1:34 &#8211;</strong> If you pre-purchase the game, you get <em>The Stick of Truth</em> on your next-gen console for free! The <em>Fractured But Whole</em> will be released on December 6th. Trailer incoming.</p>
<p><strong>1:32 &#8211;</strong> Now they&#8217;re discussing the revamped combat system, including moving through a space, knocking characters around, using powers to get around obstacles, and using your farts to alter space and time (including changing the turn order).</p>
<p><strong>1:30 &#8211;</strong> HAHAHAHA! Lots of discussion about moms and dads &#8220;doin&#8217; it.&#8221; Hilarious.</p>
<p><strong>1:29 &#8211;</strong> Matt and Trey make a joke about the Kanye game and show us more gameplay featuring the backstory of the character you create.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108575 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142845/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.26.08-PM.png" width="785" height="440" />1:28 &#8211;</strong> This is a &#8220;sequel&#8221; of sorts to <em>The Stick of Truth</em>. You and the other kids of South Park become superheroes! It REALLY feels like you&#8217;re playing an episode of the hit TV show.</p>
<p><strong>1:24 &#8211;</strong> Trey Parker and Matt Stone take the stage to talk about the new game, <em>South Park: The Fractured But Whole.</em></p>
<p><strong>1:23 &#8211;</strong> Time for South Park!</p>
<p><strong>1:22 &#8211;</strong> Released March 7th, 2017 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.</p>
<p><strong>1:19 &#8211;</strong> Dirt bikes and a truck shown in chase. This looks really good, everyone.</p>
<p><strong>1:17 &#8211;</strong> Use of aerial drones shown. Background audio of characters is good, and shows off 4-player co-op play.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108566 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142905/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.15.21-PM.png" width="791" height="440" />1:15 &#8211;</strong> Classic over-the-shoulder gameplay footage shown. Vehicles, including helicopters and rovers, are shown.</p>
<p><strong>1:13 &#8211;</strong> A couple of sound issues, but <em>Wildlands</em> looks goooooood, and Butler claims it is the largest open world Ubisoft has ever created.</p>
<p><strong>1:11 &#8211;</strong> Dominic Butler takes the stage to discuss cocaine (yep) and the story of a coke king and the ghosts attempting to take down the cartel.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108562 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142927/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.09.27-PM.png" width="784" height="438" />1:08 &#8211;</strong> <em>Ghost Recon: Wildlands</em> trailer! Looks solid.</p>
<p><strong>1:07 &#8211;</strong> Aisha does an introductory monologue about this being her 5th year hosting and how she&#8217;s paid in red wine and sarcasm. Oh, also, it&#8217;s Ubisoft&#8217;s 30th birthday!</p>
<p><strong>1:05 &#8211;</strong> <em>Just Dance 17</em> is coming to all platforms in October and Nintendo NX next year.</p>
<p><strong>1:03 &#8211;</strong> Aisha Tyler (great host!) introduces Just Dance 17. Also, she takes a moment to acknowledge the tragedy in Orlando.</p>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-108555 size-full" src="https://cdn.bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/03142949/Screen-Shot-2016-06-13-at-3.01.43-PM.png" width="781" height="437" /></strong></p>
<p><strong>1:03 &#8211;</strong> Extremely weird and colorful dance sequence. There&#8217;s a lion somewhere in there&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>1:00 &#8211; </strong>Off we go! Opening with <em>Just Dance.</em></p>
<p><strong>12:58 &#8211;</strong> Excellent opening retrospective video. Tweet to them using the hashtag #ubiE3.</p>
<p><strong>12:56 &#8211;</strong> Looks like we&#8217;re starting early!</p>
<p><strong>12:54 &#8211;</strong> Where are you watching? Youtube? Twitch? SOMEWHERE ELSE?!</p>
<p><strong>12:45 &#8211;</strong> 15 minutes to launch! Are you ready?? Let us know what you want to see!</p>
