Ubisoft Plus comes to the new PlayStation Plus service
Ubisoft has announced that its Game Pass-like service Ubisoft+ is available for PlayStation. Additionally, a version of it will be available as part of the new PlayStation Plus subscription tiers, Extra and Premium.
Ubisoft+ will first be available on PlayStation in the form of Ubisoft+ Classics bundled with PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tiers. This release of Ubisoft+ features a “curated selection of popular games” (27 available at launch), including Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, The Division and For Honor.
Ubisoft+ Classics will be available from the launch of the new version of PlayStation Plus (June 13 in America, June 23 in Europe). While Ubisoft has now officially announced the service, it was half-unveiled when Sony recently announced that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla would be part of the new PS Plus service.
Other games appearing in the first 27 include Child of Light, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, Far Cry 4, Steep, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, The Crew 2, Trials Rising, Watch Dogs, and Werewolves Within.
Ubisoft promises that the Classics collection will grow to more than 50 games by the end of 2022 and that “more games are planned in the future”.
In addition, Ubisoft announced that the full version of Ubisoft+ (which includes 100+ games, day-one releases and premium editions of some games) will be coming to PlayStation and Xbox consoles. No date was offered for either console, aside from promising that the service “will eventually be available on PlayStation and Xbox.” Currently, Ubisoft+ is only available on PC, Stadia and Amazon’s Luna service.
