Remember, it was in January 2022: when Ubisoft struck a blow by integrating Rainbow Six Extraction as soon as it was released, the French publisher took the opportunity to mention the arrival of the Ubisoft+ service on Xbox consoles. Like what Electronic Arts did, by making its catalog of EA Play games available to Xbox and PC players, a similar formula could be offered by Ubisoft.
Since the announcement at the beginning of the year, no news has been given regarding the form that this integration into the Xbox ecosystem will take. However, an announcement may be forthcoming. It was by digging into data relating to Xbox that the Twitter account @ALumia_Italia was able to discover a Ubisoft logo, suggesting an announcement that could be very close.
Although it is a question of taking this element with tweezers, strictly speaking, Ubisoft could take advantage of its presence at the next Gamescom to discuss the contours of the service within the Xbox ecosystem. In recent months, the publisher had been generous in making available to subscribers to the Xbox Game Passsome titles from its catalog: the arrival of Far Cry 5 being a recent proof. So integration into Xbox Game Pass or full service? Hope to get a clarification in the next few days.
