Ubisoft games are now available to play for a monthly subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The creator of hugely popular titles like Far Cry, Assassin\u2019s Creed and Tom Clancy Ghost Recon, officially launched its Uplay+ subscription for Windows PC yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Originally\nannounced at E3 this year, UPlay+ allows members to play more than 100 games\nfrom Ubisoft\u2019s catalogue. The membership also includes access to new releases,\nbeta programs for unreleased titles and premium content like DLC. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ubisoft\njoins Microsoft and EA, who have made their PC titles available to play with a\nmonthly subscription, instead of paying a once-off retail price to own a copy\nof the game. The services also often include discounts on purchases of games\nand additional content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nmonthly fee for a UPlay+ account will cost you $14.99 (currently about R226),\nwhich is quite expensive when compared to similar subscriptions for PC gaming.\nCancellation can be done at any time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A free trial of the service is available until 30 September 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
