It seems things keep getting worse for Ubisoft with Assassin’s Creed Unity. German website Gamer’s Global is reporting that Ubisoft is cancelling Unity’s DLC season pass.
Apparently they will be refunding the cost of the season pass to buyers through giving them a free Ubisoft game and the DLC ‘The Dead Kings’ for free as well.
As of this posting, Unity’s season pass was removed from PSN and Xbox Live so it appears that this story will have some truth to it. Ubisoft has been taking a beating since releasing Assassin’s Creed Unity in a broken, unfinished state earlier this month.
While I’m sure hard-working Ubi employees are stressing out over this, it is good to see a major publisher actually be held accountable for their actions.
UPDATE: Ubisoft has confirmed this news after the initial rumor started this morning. Ubisoft’s Yannis Mallatrevealed that Season Pass owners will be getting a free Ubisoft game like originally rumored and that all AC:U buyers will get the Dead Kings DLC.
AC:U season pass buyers will get to choose from The Crew, Far Cry , Watch Dogs, Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, Rayman Legends, or Just Dance 2015 as their free game.
