Ubisoft's unannounced game, Project U, seems to be plagued by a series of unfortunate leaks. The trouble started as early as 2022, right after the closed beta testing phase began. These leaks have resurfaced two years later, indicating that the project is still in development. Now, after what appears to be a reboot of the game's development, an introductory cinematic has been leaked online.
The origin and authenticity of the cinematic remain unconfirmed. It was shared by blogger Shaun Weber, known for leaking gaming content. Weber hinted that more videos from Project U might surface if the game continues to be in development for an extended period.
Project U is anticipated to be a session-based cooperative shooter, taking inspiration from the success of Helldivers 2. According to the leaked footage, the game's narrative centers around an alien machine invasion of Earth, with players assuming the roles of chosen individuals tasked with combating this extraterrestrial threat.
As of now, Ubisoft has not provided any official word on when they plan to formally announce Project U.
