Things haven't been going all that well for Ubisoft recently, have they?
The latest problem to hit the company comes from two of their smaller titles, Trivial Pursuit Live! and Risk.
Both games were announced as being released on Xbox One on December 16th and were indeed available for purchase and download on that date. However, despite seeming to be complete and ready for gamers to play, the games have been pulled from the Xbox Games Store entirely. There's no reasoning for the removal, but on Major Nelson's blog, an addendum has been added to his Risk announcement post.
It reads:
Risk and Trivial Pursuit Live!, from the Hasbro channel, was downloadable on Xbox Live for a short period of time in error. It has since been taken down from XBLA and will be available again early 2015 for the official launch.
We can confirm that Trivial Pursuit Live! works and doesn't appear to have any stability issues. In fact, there are at least 2,000 people on the leaderboard in-game. We had a review prepped and ready to go this morning, but have decided not to publish it yet, just in case the final version that Ubisoft does come up with is significantly different to the one that we've reviewed.

Strange, Trivial Pursuit was about 24 hours "unavailable" on the marketplace before getting pulled, I was contact with Xbox Support and they said they do not know why... , oh well I'll get it later on then...
" We had a review prepped and ready to go this morning, but have decided not to publish it yet, just in case the final version that Ubisoft does come up with is significantly different to the one that we've reviewed."
you could always publish the review now but hold off on a score until the final version.
@TOMBOY25 We could, but anything negative (or positive!) that's said in the review could end up being entirely untrue when it finally does release.
@SuperKMx ah good point.
Translation: There was game breaking bugs or even worse created issues with tge console itself.
I wanted to play TP: Live with the family during the holidays... sadface.
