Ubisoft Announces Valiant Hearts: The Great War

Today during the company’s Digital Days event, Ubisoft announced the development of Valiant Hearts: The Great War, a new video game that gives players the chance to live a touching yet comical adventure which follows the story of five characters whose destinies cross during the Great War. Valiant Hearts: The Great War will be available in the first quarter of 2014 on current- and next-generation platforms as well as PC.

The story of Valiant Hearts: The Great War focuses on the journey of five people as they brave the battles and difficulties of the Great War following their faithful canine companion. The game is set in the Western Front, a crossroads between World War One’s Allied and Central Powers and home to some of the War’s most intense military confrontations. All of the main characters are inextricably drawn together, and friendship, love, sacrifice and tragedy befall each as they help each other to retain their humanity against the horrors of war.
