Just noticed Breakpoint is out on the 4th so if you want to play that hold off starting your trial.

Release calendar.

Glebee

maybe im reading it wrong but it seems that trial ends 30th sept no matter when you start it..

Skerries

yeah it ends on the 30th
I was getting confused as well as I am invited to the beta weekend this weekend and thinking why is it in beta if it is released tomorrow?

€15 a month, for only Ubisoft games? What a ripoff.

Glebee

Bit expensive alright. When i was signing up it was showing up as €1 per month and said €12 for the year. Should have taken a screenshot. Cant find any reference to this price now.

Might you have seen £12.99 per month by any chance?

It may be a bit expensive compared to streaming services in general but I certainly wouldn't call it a rip off. It's priced to compete with Origin Access Premier with the additional caveat that Uplay+ will, by default, come with all the DLC content found in the Premium Edition of the game. If you're into Ubi releases and would generally buy them around release it works out as a pretty good deal with the yearly sub of €180 covering at least three of these games alone.

Just to back up Glebee mine definitely said €12 per year. Clearly an error. Now that would be a great deal.

Mickeroo

It's not that expensive when you consider that you could just sign up for a month and play a game at launch which would cost you over 50 euro otherwise, you'd likely be done with the game in under a month too if you play a lot.

dreamers75

If you dont have Siege, Wildlands, Division, Ass Credd, the hackng one its not a bad deal.

If you have them all like do Its not worth it at all.

They are meant to be adding other peoples games like Origin did havent seen a list.

Skerries

I have most of the games I want to play anyway so not a good deal for me so this free trial to try AC:Odyssey isn't bad

Glebee

I have about 7 games that I have not played for will dip in until end of Sept and see how it goes.

ElNino

Make sure you backup your save game first if you upgrade any game which you are playing already with additional DLCs etc. Ubi are warning people that their old save games may not work after their free subscription expires.

JoyPad

The subscription gives you access to the Ultimate editions of Breakpoint and WatchDogs Legion. Already breaking even for the next year, if you planned to get these two games. Anything else is a bonus.
I think I will replay all AC games, in order.

Canis Lupus

I just want to try Anno 1800 before I buy it and it's bjorked on the store

Skerries

I started AC:Oddyssey and it is the first of the AC games I actually like as I normally give give up after a few hours into them.
This has proper RPG elements like The Witcher 3 but I think this will take more than a month to finish for me and I was wondering could I buy it later on and keep my save from it?

Uses cloud saves but believe there is an issue with the saves from uplay+


I have 150 hours on Odyssey and still havent finished the DLC. Its very very good.

Skerries

think I'll pick up cheap somewhere as if it takes that long that's a couple of months for me

Yup same. Was a delayed a day or two, initially wasn't showing then couldn't be added but I have it now. I don't think I'll bother buying it, it's very much same game different skin.

I meant to get Uplay+ for one month, but it rolled over on the 14th for another month!
Might as well try and get some use out of that €15.
Anyone recommend anything must play from the back catalogue?
I'm not into multiplayer games at all, so no Divisions or Tom Clancy's
I've also played every AC game in existence!

Thanks a million!
