The Ubisoft Plus service was announced it would be added to the new PlayStation Plus service, which showed classic games to the latest PS5 games—more to be added to the list.
Time to bust out the credit card for a new subscription plan! Today, Ubisoft announced the Ubisoft Plus would be available on the new PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium plans, along with their games list to be released on the services. With the release rolling out next week, the following games are expected to be ready to download.
Sony’s gaming subscription plans was announced back in March, which provided a breakdown of the various plans gamers could buy: Essential, Extra and Deluxe (Premium). The monthly games for June and the following months have not been made available yet but will be announced soon.
The Ubisoft Plus service would follow suit with PlayStation Plus but would be specially called “Ubisoft+ Classics”, which would allow users to play from a list of popular games from the developer. The Ubisoft subscription service will be available on PC, Stadia, Amazon Luna, PlayStation and Xbox (as part of Xbox Game Pass).
Ubisoft’s senior vice president of partnerships, Chris Early, shared their thoughts on the joint services, “With Ubisoft+ Classics, we’re providing PlayStation players with another way to enjoy Ubisoft games on their consoles…This is just the beginning, as we will ultimately make Ubisoft+ available to PlayStation owners as we continue to build our vision and provide players with more options to access their favourite games, wherever they are.”
The Essential plan seemed to be the only offer which would offer a limited number of games in a consistent monthly rotation that would change every “first Tuesday of the month.” So, this would be the tier that most current PlayStation Plus users would be experienced with, where several PS4 and PS5 games would be available to download within that month.
The Extra and Premium plans would have the same games as the Essential plan but with more games (including the Ubisoft Plus games) and the rotation would be reset in the middle of the month. Here is the list of PS4 and PS5 games expected to be in the Extra and Premium catalogue:
