After an abysmal 2014, Ubisoft needs consumer friendly plans to be able to gain some self esteem.

Insider Gaming - "Ubisoft has cancelled yet another game, this time ending development on the Animal Crossing-inspired title Alterra."

HALIFAX (April 14, 2026) – Laid-off Ubisoft workers in Halifax have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a settlement with the video-game giant. The terms of the settlement, including the compensation employees will receive, is confidential.
I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.
Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.
But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.

Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.
Uh... No Thanks.
Who's next Activision? Then Bethesda? No thanks. The gaming industry doesn not need any more harebrained schemes to continue nickle and diming gamers. We already pay subscription to play online... then pay another fee for Season pass and DLC.
God no. We will end up with multiple subscriptions which will just end up taking away content from something we already have to subscribe to.
I am glad Sony rejected EA Access. If big publishers all demand subscriptions then ill just play indie games.
I barely subscribe to plus (once or twice a year) there's no way I am gonna subscribe to another service
