I'll wait and see how much this supposed sub is, and what all it provides. I am not averse to a subscription for a game if I enjoy it and it offers something of real value. If Ubisoft still allows people to buy the future DLC piecemeal then this is a just a harmless additive for Assassin's Creed superfans with disposable income.

 

[TrebleShot]

This is so stupid it must be true. You Ubisoft want to charge a monthly fee for this trash service on top of the already trash monthly subscription on PCs and consoles in Ubisoft plus.

 

[Evolved1]

Ahhhhahahahahagaga....... hahahahagagaha

 

[Mobilemofo]

I was hoping they would do an Ancient Rome AC before the francize turned to shit. It was one of the last periods I really wanted to see from the series.

Hey Yves, suck my baguette you french fuck.

The assassin that assassinated Assassin's Creed

 

[Denton]

Lmao, good luck with that.

Ubisoft exploring franchise-specific subscription models.

 

[PSYGN]

Imagine the idiot that actually uttered the idea out, or let alone thought of it. Talk about being out of touch.

[Clintizzle]

what is happening with gaming?

 

[chromatic9]

How about

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Assassinating their own creed.

 

[Laptop1991]

I won't be playing it then, i don't rent my games, i buy them, if they are good enough!.

[Danjin44]

Thank God, I thought you were talking about an Armored Core game.

FROM doesn't pull this type of crap.....I hope they keep making Armored Core game because ACVI was FANTASTIC!

 

[Gojiira]

Because you need to get comfortable with not owning games.

Not wrong

 

[xrnzaaas]

I wonder how slow your progress will be this time without the xp boosters.

 

[tommib]

People are done with subscriptions. This won’t end well.

 

[IAmRei]

Im glad i never buy Ubisoft game anymore. For me, the last good game they made is Wildland.

 

[Team Andromeda]

I see what it offers 1st, but hope you can also just buy a the base game

 

[Cyberpunkd]

This is probably either two things: A) Not true(yeah right) or B) Mistranslated. What they could mean is that you will be given a choice to join a subscription service for MTX in the game where you can
get free and paid items(that hopefully won't effect gameplay). Ala "GTA+ Club" for Ubisoft. Assassin's Creed Club $6.99 a month subscription.

You will not be given a choice - you will pay a monthly sub and then still will have endless MTX pushed in your face. This is a company that sold you permanent EXP boost in AC, remember?

 

[Kerotan]

So it will be like GTA+ then.

Lots of bonuses and incentives for the AC creed online game and they'll create a library of games too. Not sure if they'll just do AC games or the entire Uplay catalogue.

Either way this is an easy pass for me.

 

[DGrayson]

I've never played an AC game before. This seems like just the amazing idea to get me interested.

 

[Fess]

Because you need to get comfortable with not owning games.

Tbh I’m already comfortable with that, for story focused games I see no reason to own anything, I play them once and never touch them again. RPGs on the other hand… Monthly subscribing on Elden Ring would’ve made it the most expensive game ever, I’ve played it for 2 years now. Starfield would’ve been expensive too. And Cyberpunk. And No Man’s Sky. And actually Assassin’s Creed Odyssey as well since I spent a long time playing that, which makes me think this is a crap idea. Long games I want to own. Short games I can easily play through subscriptions.

 

[ResilientBanana]

May as well call it Assassins Creed: DOA.

This is the start of games as a subscription service .not good

Another trend started by Microsoft.

First was paying for online play, then paid wall for services.

Now subscription services.

Thanks Microsoft!

 

[Cyberpunkd]

Oh wow.

I hope its £12.99, that's seems about right.

For old games everybody bought 5 times over?

No, this is SAAS (first company being Salesforce) applied to gaming, Microsoft also copied someone (as always).
