Ubisoft has revamped its subscription services, introducing Ubisoft+ Premium at $17.99 per month with benefits like day-one releases, early access, premium editions, and monthly rewards. This service is timed with the launch of "Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown" on Ubisoft+, now included within this premium tier. Simultaneously, Ubisoft+ Classics has been unveiled on PC for $7.99 per month, featuring a rotating selection of back-catalog and live games like "Far Cry 6," "Rainbow Six Siege," and "Watch Dogs: Legion," also accessible for PlayStation+ Extra and PlayStation+ Premium Members. Ubisoft has also indicated that the Activision Blizzard catalog is expected to join the service, following Ubisoft's agreement with Microsoft regarding Activision's cloud gaming rights. Ubisoft's Philippe Tremblay shared that the Ubisoft+ subscription service had attracted more subscribers than projected, with "Assassin's Creed" and "Rainbow Six" among the most popular titles.
