Ubisoft Keeps Rockin’ In The Free World
Renowned video game publisher, Ubisoft, announces the multi-platinum, album selling band, Korn, will debut their single alongside Ubisoft’s song-titled game release, “Haze,” states an article on gameindustrybiz.com. Ubisoft’s Worldwide Licensing Vice President, Christian Salomon advocates that the “Partnership with Korn is original in the video game industry in that the song will be released and promoted as a full-fledged single, and not just as a download with the video game. It is a testament to the synergy possibilities between music and video games, which often share the same audience.” Ubisoft debuted their Nintendo DS release, Jam Sessions, in the 2007 SXSW ScreenBurn Arcade. Jam Sessions enables players to play and save guitar riffs on the DS’s touch screen, allowing musicians to write and save songs on the fly. Ubisoft keeps rockin’ in the free world.
