Ubisoft + may be joining the service

The Xbox Games Pass is undoubtedly one of the best things that has happened to modern games.

The service allows players to download and play hundreds of games for a low monthly subscription cost.

Ubisoft + Join Games Pass

It is rumored that Ubisoft’s own subscription service, Ubisoft +, can join the Games Pass and become available to subscribers for free as part of the subscription.

Jez Corden, editor of Windows Central, tweeted about the rumors and stated that “it has a great chance of being true”.

This could add more than 100 Ubisoft games to the already extensive catalog.

The games that are currently offered as part of the Ubisoft + subscription include:

  • Watch the Legion of Dogs
  • Far Cry New Dawn
  • Division 2
  • Assassin’s Creed Valhalla
  • Rainbow Six Siege
  • The Crew 2
  • For honor
  • South Park: The Fractured But Whole

Will it include the Xbox?

At the moment, Ubisoft + is only available for PC, with plans to bring it to Stadia later this year.

If Ubisoft partners with Microsoft, it could bring the service to the Xbox, or it could become a major selling point for Games Pass For PC subscribers.

EA Play

In 2020, EA Play joined the Xbox Games Pass Ultimate, adding more than 100 titles to the Games Pass.

EA Play should arrive at Games Pass For PC, but it has been postponed.

It seems that Microsoft is really trying to make Games Pass the best selling point for the Microsoft brand.

Having new titles from EA and Ubisoft, as well as all Microsoft-owned titles available on Day 1, makes it an important factor in the decision to go to Xbox or PlayStation in this generation.
