The company uploaded the official trailer for “Ubisoft Quartz” onto their YouTube channel within the last 24 hours at the time of writing, and it has generated quite an overwhelming amount of negative feedback.

Many feelers have analyzed the video to represent Ubisoft’s cluelessness and unclear direction. According to the video, Ubisoft Quartz itself does not have much control over anything, passing off most of that responsibility to the blockchain technology.
