No Ubisoft‚ I'll Never 'Feel Comfortable With Not Owning My Games'
Ubisoft has found itself in a bit of hot water with fans after its Director of Subscriptions (a dystopian job if ever I heard one) Philippe Tremblay took part in an interview with gameindustry.biz. This comes after the rebranding and repricing of Ubisoft’s own subscription service‚ Uplay+ (now Ubisoft Plus)‚ which will be bundling its Multi-Access (i.e. multi-platform) and PC Access subscriptions into one $17.99 monthly price. This will grant players access to the entire Ubisoft library‚ including new Day One games like the excellent Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown‚ across Xbox‚ PC‚ and Amazon Luna‚ with seamless crossplay. Ubisoft seems to be doubling down on the subscription model with the belief that subscription services are going to play a large role in the future of gaming. If Game Pass is any indication‚ he’s probably not wrong when it comes to the value of subscription services.
