Rumour: Ubisoft+ Might Finally Be Available On Xbox Soon

Happily give skull and Bones a trial when they do

Glad Ubisoft Games not coming to Gamepass
Thats all we need A price bump

Will be interesting to see how this works.
It's dead on arrival if they charge £12.99 when GPU is only £10.99.

I already own most of the ubi games so wouldn't b gd for me it might b worthwhile in a few years time when there's a few immortals/far cry /assassin's creed games on there if I stop buying them now then have it for a month or two

From my perspective, Ubisoft doesn't release enough in a year to warrant me signing up to their service. Unless its 'new releases' day and date, then I see even less reason to subscribe - especially with Ubisoft whose games drop in price quite quickly after launch anyway.

As I have Game Pass Ultimate, I would wait until they opt to put their games on that service or wait until the price of the game drops to a point I'm willing to pay. You can save a LOT by waiting a month or 2 for Ubisoft to drop the price!

To make it worth it they need to stop putting their games into gamepass and lower the price. But still it's a better service than EA access which doesn't include new games day one which is why it didn't really take off on consoles, imagine if fifa and Battlefield were available day one, it would have 10+ million subscribers easily

Yeah… nah. I’m buying back dated games off eBay, really cheap and I can trade them in, or sell them when I’m done. Old skool!

I don’t mind subscription services, but I only pay for them when there might be something(s) I actually want to invest my time into. I don’t blindly pay for services every month because I’ve forgotten them, and then wonder why my mortgage payment bounced!

Ubisoft 'originals' on Xbox/Game Pass? No, thanks. It's possible though. Ubisoft has had it rough recently and if it hadn't been for Valhalla they would have already been acquired by Embracer or some other overlord.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Unless it's ubisoft offering you sweets in the park.

Oh damn. I was just about to buy Valhalla. Might just do it, anyways, since I'm sure I'll love it.

Already paying $7 a month for gamepass and then another $15 just for Ubisoft+ won't be feasible joining every month. One would join occasionally to play either a few games during the month that one joined, or a new release hopefully, instead of paying full release price, that'll be worth it then for sure.

@Kaloudz I definitely agree with swapping out EA Access with Ubisoft +. The only games I like from EA are Dead Space series and Mirrors Edge whilst Ubisoft have plenty of good games.

@Lup Valhalla was amazing, played 127 hours on it lol.

@BrilliantBill I finish a new game within 2-3 weeks at the most. But I don't have kids and my time is my own, which makes it a bit easier of course lol.

@Eleventy8 Yup I support this notion too. Only join up for a month or so at a time, when u really want to invest in a few old games, or a new game, instead of paying full price upon release.👍👍👍

@UltimateOtaku91 Or Call of Duty on day one release yes, I agree ffs lol.

@blinx01 And Gamepass subscription is only about $7 a Mont, to charge $14.99 pm like they do on Steam is a but much. But if u can get a day one release for that amount instead of $70, it will of course be more than worth it too?

It's all about the monies. If it's enough, it'll be a part of gp. If it's too much, it won't.

@Kaloudz game pass and eaplay didn't breed competition. One just swallowed the other.

Can’t say I’m really interested. Lots of Ubi games already hit Gamepass, Ubisoft+ Classics is bundled in as part of PS+ (for those of us who are multiplat), and the few games that aren’t on either — I bought, often for cheap.

Why is everyone saying they'd subscribe if they didn't own all these games already? You get new DAY ONE Ubisoft games, not just the old games

That could be interesting for future releases since, on pc at least, you have access to the ultimate edition of the games, not just the base one so the value is huge since those editions are stupid expensive

This would put Gamepass over the top, Pair this with day and date releases, Gamepass is the best deal in gaming...

Nice option for those that want it (not for me... I've never really connected with Ubi's content).
But... needs to be cheaper to succeed.
I'm guessing that there'll be a deal where gamepass ultimate subscribers can get it a bit cheaper.

The last thing I want is yet another subscription service, especially with how relatively few games Ubisoft put out a year. They’d be much better off joining Gamepass.

@Jomi1964 Last week I went through about five games on game pass that I fancied playing. Was almost invested in Far Cry 5, but the game has some serious audio and graphic stuttering on the Series X.

So I said F it and cancelled the recurring payment.

I’m currently playing Immortals Fenyx Rising on the PS5, which I bought dirt cheap on disc. That we’ll keep me occupied for a month or two.

@Gamer128 because I already own the Ubisoft games I want so waste of money subbing to rent games I can play without paying , and if they release day one games I want I'll wait till there's a couple I want then have it for a month and complete em , and lets b honest I've fell in to the buy day one trap with ubi before assassin's creed unity/watchdogs legion ....I should have waited

Needs to be much cheaper on Xbox. At £4.99pm I’d be tempted.

Well known who? Okay.

If it was added to gamepass then gamepass would have EA , Activision blizzard , ubisoft , Bethesda & Microsoft games there's no way the price wouldn't go up drastically

At this point ive been burned too many times by Ubisoft games. Too bloated and repetitive and definitely not for me anymore. So its a hard pass for me.

My beef is the lack of cross play with ubisoft games I've tried on gamepass (pc). Farcry 6 (free weekend!) and Ghost Recon: Wildlands got me so excited to co op with my friend on xbox but no....

@UltimateOtaku91 EA access is a huge plus for gamepass...I mean it's probably given gamepass it's biggest release this year.
I really don't think EA access needs day 1 releases when it has 10hr trails of games like battlefield and grid on release...gives you plenty enough idea on the games. Maybe if there was more a focus on sp day 1 full releases would show more of a benefit.

Can't say I'd be overly excited for this. I know I wouldn't personally pay £12 a month to get access to titles that never hold their price that long anyway. I guess if it ended up part of gamepass, where it's then effectively offered for 'free', getting new assassin's creeds and far crys could be a coop for Xbox. Personally I'd rather MS spend their money elsewhere though.

The individual per-publisher subscriptions have a very steep hill to climb. EA does it but it's only like $5 or something. Ubi+, Ubi has a big back catalogue, but much of it is heavily discounted. Maybe they intend to stop discounting but that wound hurt their sales model heavily. Their new games are infrequent and largely GaaS where this doesn't pay. And if you're playing one of their big GaaS games, surely it's cheaper to just by the game since it's designed to suck all your time anyway. Ubi+ has always been a weird offering. It would be a better idea if they were launching a Ubisoft competitor to GP/Plus where they had deals with other publishers and had their own rotating catalouge of industry-wide games + all "first party" (Ubisoft.) Sounds impossible, but, then EA built Origin, a storefront hosting games from other publishers as well.

@SplooshDmg My guess is very, very little of their primary customer base (the sports customers) are on PC, so the biggest games from their catalog in terms of revenue aren't really losing out by being on that sub. And the "core" gamer crowd probably breaks even on the few other games they release. That being said, they have a few bigger core games coming up that's in the PC player's sights, so that's actually a decent value. $100 a year is only $30 more than the console price of one game.

@uptownsoul You forgot "1 week before standard release" if you buy the $100 gold edition.

Probably be part game pass by this time next year and game pass be $30 a month. Which is $30 too much for most part.

@YouTrash Exactly!!!

@uptownsoul lol!

@Jomi1964

I just got it, it was too tempting. Haven't tried it yet but I know I'll love it.

@Eleventy8 Wow audio n graphics stuttering on Series X, that is a bummer yes. I again never finished fc5 but I did finish fc6, was way better game.

@Lup Nice. Enjoy it, happy gaming. 😊

@Jomi1964 the game can lock up for up to 3 seconds with no audio or frame rate.

I thought the game had crashed multiple times, till it springs back to life and audio stutters. I found it unplayable.

If you look up the issues online, it’s seems that people know about it, nothing done though. I’m amazed it’s available on game pass in the state it’s in.

Unless it’s an issue with my Series X, specifically.

I played it on the Series S with no issues, maybe try to delete n reinstall. Highly unlikely that it could be a Series X issue only, but not impossible though?
