Ubisoft Plus is the company’s subscription service that gives fans access to a vast library of games from the popular developer. With other titles like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Far Cry, and The Division, it’s a haven for fans of action and adventure. But if you’re specifically wondering whether the next chapter in the franchise, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, is available on Ubisoft Plus, let’s dive into the details and clear things up.
Can you play Assassin’s Creed Shadows on Ubisoft Plus?
No, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is not part of the Ubisoft Plus lineup. The basic level of Ubisoft’s subscription service doesn’t often feature brand-new games at their launch. You can play most other games in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, but Shadows is not among them.
However, you can absolutely play Assassin’s Creed Shadows through your Ubisoft Plus Premium subscription. Unlike the basic sub, the Premium service offers new games from day one and usually contains their Deluxe or Premium editions, DLCs, and more. However, it’s pricier too. The standard subscription costs $7.99 per month, with an annual plan of $79.99. Meanwhile, to get the Premium, you’ll need to fork over $17.99 per month, or $107.99 for the annual subscription. But that will grant you access to Assassin’s Creed Shadows Digital Deluxe Edition.
In addition, the Ubisoft Plus Premium contains the developer’s full catalogue of over 100 games, plenty of discounts on their store, monthly rewards, and more. Whether or not it’s worth it to you comes down to your choice and if you value access to all of Ubisoft’s games in one place, or want to spend extra to buy the game outright. If you’re on the fence to make a decision, read our review of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
