Ubisoft’s Gods & Monsters - revealed all the way back at E3 2019 without a drop of information since if you can believe it - will now be known as Immortals: Fenyx Rising.

Ubisoft officially confirmed the name change following a leak at the Taiwanese Ratings Board in the press release for their upcoming Ubisoft Forward Presentation.

The video will take place on 10 September and will feature more information about the game, as well as “yet-to-be revealed surprises.” Here’s the lowdown from Ubi themselves:

“Tune in to the stream on ubisoft.com/Forward on September 10 at 11:00 AM PDT for a Brawlhalla matchup featuring the Ubisoft News team and Blue Mammoth developers, as well as updates from the teams behind Roller Champions, For Honor, The Division 2, and Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Earn in-game rewards and items by logging in to your Ubisoft account during the stream, with more rewards offered the longer you watch.
The main show kicks-off at 12:00 PM PDT, when you can see what’s in store for games like Watch Dogs: Legion, Hyper Scape, and Rainbow Six Siege, as well as a much-anticipated update on our new IP, Immortals Fenyx Rising, formerly known as Gods & Monsters, and more yet-to-be revealed surprises. If you still can’t get enough, stick around after the main show to see deep dives into two unreleased titles, exclusive to this edition of Ubisoft Forward.”

The game is still listed for a 2020 release on Ubisoft’s store pages, but then it’s also still listed as Gods & Monsters there too. We imagine we’ll hear about a solid release date and/or a delay during the Ubisoft Forward.

Let us know what you think of the name change down in the comments!
