Global video game company Ubisoft publishes some of the game industry’s smartest and most successful games, including Myst, Prince of Persia, Beyond Good and Evil, Far Cry, And 1 Streetball, Brothers in Arms, and the blockbuster Tom Clancy troika: Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, and Rainbow Six. Upcoming releases include Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie, inspired by Universal Pictures December 14th release of King Kong.
