Ubisoft+ (formerly Uplay+[1]) is a subscription-based video game service from Ubisoft offering access to download and play games from Ubisoft's library for a single monthly fee.[2] Ubisoft+ offers subscribers unlimited access to a catalog of more than 100 games on Microsoft Windows PCs, including titles such as Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Watch Dogs: Legion and Immortals Fenyx Rising.[3] Ubisoft+ also includes premium editions to games, classic titles and additional content packs.[4] With a Ubisoft+ subscription, games can be downloaded and played on Windows computers using the free Ubisoft Connect game launcher.

History

Ubisoft announced the new subscription service Uplay+ at E3 2019.[5][6] The service launched on September 3, 2019, for Windows.[7][8][9]

In October 2020, Uplay+ rebranded to Ubisoft+ and announced its service expansion to cloud gaming platforms Amazon Luna and Google Stadia for US subscribers in November 2020 and December 2020, respectively.[10][11] New releases were added including Watch Dogs: Legion in October 2020,[12] Assassin's Creed Valhalla in November 2020[13] and Immortals Fenyx Rising in December 2020.[14]

Ubisoft also announced its plans to bring Ubisoft+ to PlayStation consoles and was made available in May–June 2022 as part of the revamped PlayStation Plus subscription service with Ubisoft+ Classics on the Extra, Deluxe, and Premium tiers.[15] Ubisoft+ was eventually brought to Xbox consoles on April 12, 2023.[16]
