Maybe MS can do us a favor and acquire Ubisoft. That way we can enjoy their games without having buy another subscription.

Regulators should t be an issue as Ubisoft looking to be acquired since their company is losing value.

Personally I'd rather Ubisoft do their own thing. I only am interested in 1 game from them every 5 years or more. Waste of money. Activision would be more than enough to make MS competitive as a console owner / sub provider.

I'd rather they spend the sub money on indies and AA games.

That's not a favour for GP, it would be more like a devaluation.

This makes PS Plus looks more valuable

I only play rainbow six seige and maybe far cry. However, we are lying to ourselves if we think their IPs don’t sell well. Assassin creed is more popular than god of war and god of war has been out longer.

Even if it was a one time payment, its 14$ too much.

I'm all for this.

I've subscribed to Ubisoft+ many times on PC. It's like with EA:s more expensive one where you take a month here and there to play their new releases.

Good stuff imo

Question - why is this on Xbox and not PlayStation at the same time?

Ubisoft+ Coming to PlayStation

Ubisoft+ is Coming to PlayStation and Ubisoft+ Classics will bring 27 games to PlayStation Plus beginning May 24th

May 16, 2022

Ubisoft+ will come to PlayStation in the future, bringing access to more than 100 titles, additional content packs, and rewards to the platform. The subscription service is currently available on PC, Stadia, and Amazon Luna, offering players day-one releases, classic games, and premium editions, and ultimately will be available on PlayStation and Xbox.

Ubisoft also revealed that beginning May 24, it will launch a new Ubisoft+ subscription for PlayStation Plus called Ubisoft+ Classics. Ubisoft+ Classics on PlayStation is a curated selection of popular games, including top-selling Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, The Division, and For Honor, as well as beloved classic games like Child of Light, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, Watch Dogs, Werewolves Within, and more. The Ubisoft+ Classics catalogue for PlayStation Plus will launch with 27 titles and will grow to 50 by the end of 2022

 

[DaGwaphics]

Yeah, the only way this would have been impactful is if it were an EA Play situation. As it stands, it's probably not gonna get a lot of traction.

Agreed. A MUCH cheaper Ubi service where new games get added after a year or two would be the much stronger play as far as number of subscribers go anyway. Unlike GP, there just isn't enough variety in the Ubi lineup to substantiate a $15/mo standalone service (as least not to the masses).

 

[JCK75]

I could spend $17 once on steam during a sale and get all of the Ubi games worth playing.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Hopefully this doesn't mean they start taking the current Ubi games off of game pass.

Uh oh!

 

[Pagusas]

about $10 - $12 over priced.

$4.99 a month would have been perfect.


I wonder if we'll eventually see a multi-tiered gamepass, where the base gaempass has all MS/1st party games, and then you can get add on "channels" like UBI/EA/2k/other devs for like $5 each.

I legit missed this.

I thought PlayStation was only getting Classic.

And seeing posts recently, seems like I wasn't the only one...

I'm all for it, MS. Do it, just so we don't have to see them anywhere else again.

 

[Freeman76]

Should be 9.99, but if u like some of these games its not too bad I guess.

I was gonna buy the season pass for valhalla a few weeks back, but i know they are a one and done dlc, this is cheaper than buying them and i'll finish them in a month easy. Couldnt see Ragnarok on there though.

 

[KellyNole]

Gamepass Ultimate costs the same. It has more games and publishers. How is this 15 bucks for a single platform ?

 

[zomboden]

Nobody in their right mind is paying $17.99 for this when game pass is $14.99. I guess only mega fans of Ubisoft would pay that. But if you're a mega fan you have probably already bought their games. Who is this for?

 

[Aguero9320]

This is stupid, but not really a bad deal for us - I just don’t get how Ubisoft think it’s going to work for them.

It’s too expensive to to stay subscribed given how many/few games they release a year, but I’ll definitely dip in and out to play stuff cheaper when something comes out. I can get through most games in a month, so $18 instead of $70? Why not. I’d never just let this roll though like I would with Gamepass.

It would be like the classics version you get bundled with PS+ Extra.
Yes, the choice might be limited, but then you get tons of games and even pretty new ones. That classics is so good that I really can not understand why you get it as a "free" extra, and the other, just slightly better version, for such an enormous price.

 

[poodaddy]

No thanks, I figure I'll just put my tongue in this here outlet, gotta be funner than playing a Ubisoft game.
