First of all, let me get this out of the way. Not even a second into the conference, South Park: The Fractured but Whole was announced and made available for pre-order.

Now that we have that out of the way, For Honor was announced next. Details about it can be found in this article.

The Crew has an expansion pack, titled Wild Run, which contains the opportunity to compete on summits all over the United States.

The next game aired a cat riding fire breathing unicorn. Which actually reveals Trials Fusion Awesome Level Max, set for release July 14, 2015. Honestly, I still can't make out how in the world a ferocious cat and a fire-breathing unicorn, complete with happy rainbows and destruction, relate to Trials Fusion.

Tom Clancy's: The Division appears again, but Ubisoft delves into the dark zone, set in Manhattan. In the dark zone, you can work alongside other agents, or turn against them like a complete jerkass. The development team Experience the tension, fear, and paranoia as you play in an area where anything can happen. Note that it introduces the Black Friday sale. The snow is brisk the city home to darkness... and the risk of infection is very healthy. In the dark zone, it is best to work together at times. Communication seems to be essential here, though you do have the option to betray others. A nifty aspect of the gear can be contaminated in this. Cleaners are not apparently pretty big threats, but then again, they do have flamethrowers. At the end, 'Tis the Season plays... eerie. There will be a beta for PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One at the beginning of next year. March 8th, 2016 will be the release date for all platforms.

Anno 2205 is a title set in the future, though not on the colony of the moon. You begin by raising a city, which can eventually extend to the moon. You can check out the beta for Anno 2205 later this year. Raise your city, develop your resources, race to space, and do so much more.

And then we have Just Dance 2016. You don't need a camera anymore, but you can instead use your phone to play! Jason Derulo appears in this... and live too. Just Dance 2016 will arrive October 16 available for all platforms. For Wii U, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One players comes Just Dance Unlimited. The streaming subscription service arrives with release of Just Dance 2016.

In Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, protect the civilized world from an attack using close quarters combat. In this title, you stay dead if you die. Fun fact: Angela Bassett plays Six, the deputy director in Rainbow Six Siege. Additionally, there's much more to multiplayer than what's aired. Terrohunt returns with the toughest AI yet, which will be playable solo or with up to four friends. According to the announcement, the terrorists will destroy you in the most unexpected and clever of ways, so you need to be clever this, utilizing machinery and tools, avoiding the sense to go Rambo on enemies within your mission. There will be a total of four Terrohunt Modes, including Terrohunt Classic. The beta begins September 24, 2015, which will include Terrohunt and PvP.

A new TrackMania Turbo will be making its way onto consoles, complete with customizable maps. A demo trailer is presented, and already, does it look speedy, intense, and if you're extremely prone to motion sickness, nauseating. What's really nifty is that the game will include a track-builder mode, which allows players to generate courses with a single button press.

As mentioned before, Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is set in London of 1868 in the midst of the Industrial Revolution. Editor's Note: The voice actor of Jacob sounds familiar... Nevertheless, judging from the trailer, Jacob can uses his gauntlet similar to a grappling hook and can perform some sweet acrobatic parkour moves. Both Jacob and Evie Frye lead a band to take back London from corruption and bring the city back to its people.

And finally...

We have Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wild Lands. The drug cartel appears to be the focus of this game. During one mission, a team parachutes through the clouds and land near a drug cartel hideout. Your goal? Take down the drug cartel of South America. Utilize vehicles chase down vehicles containing the most dangerous and expensive of drugs. How you handle each mission is up to you however--you can approach the cartel via long range, stealth, or ambush. You can even take hostages at gunpoint! It doesn't Featuring a massive open world, a variety of vehicles (boats, planes, dirtbikes, etc.) Hoping to see more about it soon.

It is the year of Tom Clancy for Ubisoft, that's for sure.

Below you can find the video of the conference, which we hope you enjoy (Go to 25:15 to start the actual conference):
