Ubisofthas revealed and playtested multiple shooter games in the last few years without even launching one of them so far, but it seems the company is still interested in delivering a big multiplayer hit, as it has opened registration for a new co-op shooter game codenamed Project U.
As spotted and reported byInsider Gaming, Project U has its dedicated page on Ubisoft’s domain, and players who live in Western Europe can currentlyregister for playtestingthis upcoming project. There isn’t an image or footage from this new game other than a piece of concept art that shows multiple warriors with guns shooting at what appears to be a robot army.

The official page of the game describes Project U as “a new concept of session-based co-op shooter, where many players unite to prevail against an overwhelming threat!” It doesn’t seem the game would feature any PvP gameplay opportunities, but the descriptions are too short to get many details out of. It also remains unknown whether Project U would be a hero-based shooter or not, as the official concept art implies different characters would be playable.
According to the game’s official page, players from France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, and Italy can register for playtesting the game. Keep in mind that the playtest will only be available on PC, with the following minimum system requirements:
Currently, there is no release date on when the playtesting will begin. If you are picked for playtesting the game, you will be notified via an email from Ubisoft.
Before Project U, Ubisoft playtested another multiplayer project codenamedProject Q, which is reportedly still in development and active playtesting. Other than that, Ubisoft has a few other multiplayer projects coming up, includingThe Division HeartlandandTom Clancy’s XDefiant. Also, the company was working on Ghost Recon Frontline as an upcoming Battle Royale experience, but it was canceled after a closed alpha testing session.
