Ubisoft to Release Uplay

Now, players of Ubisoft games can look forward to Uplay(TM). Assassins Creed II and Splinter Cell: Conviction are the first two games to offer access to this new technology. The beta version of Uplay will be available for Assassin’s Creed II on PS3 and Xbox 360 by connecting directly through the Uplay in-game interface. PC users will also be able to make use of Uplay.

Ubisoft has announced that gamers will have the chance to take advantage of four, key gaming services. These are Uplay Win, Uplay Help, Uplay Share and Uplay Shop. Uplay Win is the primary service that will be released on Uplay Beta. The Uplay Win feature allows those playing games to get rewards through their actions throughout games enabled with Uplay. This is done by collecting units that can be cashed in for rewards.

These rewards include digital items and exclusive, downloadable game content. For example, in Assassin’s Creed II, you can exchange your units for an Altair costume or access to the Auditore Family Crypt. You can also use Uplay Win points in a cross-platform capacity (PS3, Xbox 360, PC). If you do not want to use your units right away, you can also save them up for future Ubisoft game releases.

Additionally, gamers will be able to access Uplay Share, Uplay Shop and Uplay Help from www.uplay.com.
