Ubisoft has announced some major changes coming to its video game subscription service, Ubisoft+.
Outlined in arecent blog postby the company, two distinct tiers of Ubisoft+ membership are now available: a $17.99 / £14.99 per month Premium tier and a much cheaper $7.99 / £6.99 Classics tier.
While the Premium tier focuses on offering select brand new games like the recentPrince of Persia: The Lost Crowneither on their day of release or for an early access period, the Classics tier is intended to provide “a curated selection of popular back-catalog and live games.”
A full list of games included in each tier is available onthe Ubisoft website, but the Classics tier seems like a pretty compelling deal on the whole. Although the game selection is fairly limited, the $7.99 / £6.99 price tag is quite competitive compared to other game subscription services likeXbox Game Pass.
There are some major titles likeFar Cry 6,Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, andTom Clancy’s The Division 2included in the Classics tier, which should provide a good few months of entertainment. The library included with Premium, on the other hand, features a range of more recent titles such asAvatar: Frontiers of Pandora.
One thing to note, however, is that the games on the Classics tier can only be accessed on PC. Premium, on the other hand, has support for PC,AmazonLuna,Xbox One, andXbox Series X|S in certain titles which might make it the best option if you regularly use a range of different platforms.
There are also some other small distinctions between the two tiers, including the fact that Premium includes additional DLC content for its games. Premium subscribers can also make use of a 10% discount on virtual currency purchases, alongside exclusive monthly rewards like cosmetic skins inTom Clancy’s Rainbow Six SiegeorWatch Dogs: Legion.
