Ubisoft Reveal Changes To Ubisoft Plus Subscription, And What About Activision

January 16, 2024 by Ryan Parreno

Ubisoft isn’t quite ready to carry Activision games yet.

Ubisoft has shared the changes they have made to their subscription service, including a statement about Activision games.

Ubisoft + was introduced as UPlay + in 2019 and has seen revisions nearly every year. It expanded to cloud gaming via Amazon Luna and Google Stadia in 2020, it was added to PlayStation Plus in 2022, and it was made available on Xbox consoles last year.

Most interestingly, Ubisoft was added into the Microsoft Activision deal late last year, as a precondition to getting the deal approved in the UK. So, in the UK and most other regions save the EU, Ubisoft has been assigned as the sole owner of the cloud gaming rights for Activision games. While this was a blockbuster benefit to Ubisoft, they haven’t incorporated Activision games to their services yet.

In a new blog post, Ubisoft revealed the changes they are making to their Ubisoft + subscription service. Ubisoft + Multi-Access and PC Access has been rebranded to Ubisoft + Premium. Aside from what PC and console subscribers already receive, Ubisoft + Premium will add new offers, such as day one, early access, premium editions, etc.

Notably, Ubisoft + Premium is not available on PlayStation. Instead, this subscription is available across Xbox, Amazon Luna, and standalone on Windows, via the Ubisoft Connect Client. This is a single subscription of $ 17.99, for all these different platforms.

Ubisoft will also have a new Ubisoft + Classics subscription. This will comprise their back catalog, and Ubisoft lists not so old games like Far Cry 6, Rainbow Six Siege, and Watch Dogs: Legion, as part of the subscription. Ubisoft + Classics is part of the PlayStation Plus subscription. You can subscribe to it separately on Windows via the Ubisoft Connect Client, for $ 7.99 a month.

So when Ubisoft describes their back catalog here, it’s notable that they aren’t referring to their real old games, such as the 2003 Windows release of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. Ubisoft does have a ton of older games like this, that aren’t fully compatible with modern Windows. Ubisoft may find some cases where they have versions of these games on PlayStation, to add to PlayStation Plus.

But it seems more likely that Ubisoft is sticking to old games, in the sense that they aren’t any much older than a decade or two ago. At least, nothing that has not been ported or is easily playable on today’s platforms.

Now, in regards to Activision, Ubisoft hasn’t committed on any individual titles or release dates. They did say this:

“We know players are excited about that, and I am too. We’re working on the offering right now to make sure it’s the best possible experience for our subscribers, and we’ll have more to share later.”
