E3 2011: Ubisoft Announces Kinect Support in ‘Core Games’

Ubisoft took the stage during Microsoft’s presser to demonstrate how Ubisoft planned on incorporating the Kinect in its future core games, including the upcoming Gjost Recon: Future Soldier. All future Tom Clancy titles will include Kinect support.

Showing how a weapon could be customized using voice commands and gestures (over 20 million of them can be recognized by the game), before moving on to show how the Kinect can be used to control weapons as well, it was a statement of intent on both, Microsoft’s part as well as Ubisoft’s, to prove once and for all that Kinect can be more than just a novelty.
