    About time. Hopefully it will have a free trial and use it to play through Lost between Worlds. I will not sub fully until the next Fenyx, Watch Dogs, AC (not mirage), Far Cry etc are all in there.

    All Ubi games in GP could leave when it does launch.
    Starfield is an Xbox exclusive but it is not my exclusive as PS players should be able to play it too.

    If true, this probably means R6 Extraction will be leaving Game Pass this month.

    Hopefully it joins gamepass in the future like EA Play did. dance
    With regards, Slayer.

    I had better get to work on this! Been putting it off for too long.
    With regards, Slayer.

    I better finish up Extraction before it leaves, as others have said. I can see it being pulled.
    Happy Gaming

    I doubt it unless they increase price of Ultimate, or may be add it to the Family Plan, which also has not launched.

    Ubi+ is £15 per month, EA play is £3.99 per month / £20 per year, so is easier to add to GPU. EA play could also leave GPU

    There could be GP perk for a free trial though.

    It's way too expensive for what it is. It costs significantly more than game pass ultimate if you did the convert Gold thing, and even at full price GPU is about the same. Anyone at Ubisoft who thinks they offer similar value is delusional (or has so little respect for their customers they're sure they'll hand over their money anyway).

    I guess if you look at it as solely something to sub for a month, rinse the latest AC and then cancel it could work. But that doesn't seem to make sense as a business strategy for ubi.

    £15 a month! Wow. I was thinking it would be a similar cost to EA Play so didn't bother looking. Cheaper for me to buy Valhalla with how long it will take me to complete. facepalm

    Actually just checking it is £12.99 on PC, but not sure of Xbox, probably be the same.

    EA play and GP only gives you the games. Ubi+ gives you the games and the DLC. But yeah for just one game it is cheaper to just buy later on sale, but if 3 games launch about the same time, it is cheaper than spending £300 on Ultimate editions.

    I think its coming to Gamepass, not the full version so base games which will help increase sales of the DLC, most of the games on U+ are years old, EA style of deal so nothing new appears on GP for at least a year, price increase soon for Gamepass and lack of games the last month could be ready for a big dump of games on it

    Could see me signing up for a month to play through new releases that interest me, like AC Mirage. But £12.99 a month for 24 old games that are on sale everyweek is a tough sell...

    I have completed or own over half of those. Legion is literally the only one that interests me so I wouldn’t have to buy it but then I read where it’ll cost and that game is always on sale. Hard pass from me

    I was interested last year mainly to play all the old 360 games I missed, but they killed all those off so I have no reason now, especially since all those games listed have been under $15.

    Hard pass on this one too. Already played most of the backlog there that I actually would like. Some stuff is just so repetitive and the ones I am interested in are already on gamepass (Odyssey, Origins, Siege)
    Those games still have music, but yeah maybe there is something else going on

    Nice, I own the older AC games on PC but I'd be willing to replay them on Xbox to get their achievements. I hope Assassin's Creed 1 is included too, but it's not on PS4 so I can imagine them skipping it if they want both consoles to have the same list.
  • Posted on 11 January 23 at 16:52
    I'll have to check whether I've played any Ubi games on game pass, figure they'll start prioritizing their own service and maybe leave once their argreements elapses.

    Such a label is visible in PS Store for long time, so it could mean nothing then an additional ad or the start of Ubi+ on consoles. We will see….
