That is, if you were able to get through its demanding tutorial, something that many were not able to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Driver San Francisco - Launch Trailer [UK]\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JtIwF0DG7oQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In an effort to revive the franchise, <strong>Ubisoft announced in September 2021 that the Australian platform Binge would be adapting the game into a television series<\/strong>. After years without any new information about it, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gamefile.news\/p\/ubisoft-yves-guillemot-driver-skull-and-bones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">a representative from Ubisoft has told journalist Stephen Totilo<\/a> that this television series based on Driver has been canceled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While it is true that <strong>this same representative has promised that Ubisoft is actively working on other projects related to the franchise<\/strong>, the last game published was Driver: San Francisco for PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360, and PC in 2011. Therefore, although the return of Driver may be on the horizon, after the cancellation of its series, we remain skeptical until we see some kind of official announcement regarding it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div
