How to watch Ubisoft Forward: games, time, streams and rewards

Ubisoft Forward is the game publisher’s first all-digital conference, taking place on July 12. While the ongoing global health crisis may have sent the event entirely online, players can still look forward to updates on a host of their favorite titles.

Ubisoft Forward live stream

Ubisoft Forward takes place on Sunday, July 12. The stream starts at 10:30am PST/1:30pm EST/6:30pm BST/3:30am ACT. The pre-show will begin 30 minutes after the start of the livestream.

According to Ubisoft themselves, the “stream kicks off at 10:30 AM PDT/07:30 PM CEST with news and content from games like Trackmania, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Just Dance 2020, Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, and more.”

This is then followed by the main show, which will provide “details from Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Watch Dogs: Legion, Hyper Scape, and a few surprises”. One of these ‘surprises’ will be Far Cry 6.

Prior to the start of the event, Ubisoft tweeted to inform their followers that the even will indeed be pre-recorded.

Their statement reads: “Ubisoft Forward comes during a time of big internal change. Because all the content has been pre-recorded, we wanted to recognize that the issues we’re currently dealing with won’t be addressed directly in the show. We still have significant work to do and are committed to this process. We will provide more updates soon.”
